In connection with our 75th Anniversary Celebration, the Fall Luncheon Lecture Series began this past Monday, October 8, 2012 with a lecture by St. Tikhon’s alumnus Fr. John Diamantis (STOTS 2007).

Fr. John Diamantis was the first of four speakers  for the lecture series. Speaking in his capacity as District Chaplain of the Orthodox Christian Fellowship (OCF) and Chairman of the Department of College Ministry at Orthodox Church in America; Diocese of New York & New Jersey, his lecture focused on the central role campus ministry needs to begin taking in the life of our Churches and the steps necessary for a parish community to begin an OCF chapter in neighboring colleges or universities.
