Small Parish Forum

A Small Parish Forum will be held July 10-12 2014 at Christ the Savior Orthodox Church, Byesville OH. Subtitled “Help, Hope, Stability and Identity”, the forum is geared for parishes with 50 or fewer members who want to set realistic goals based on their town’s economics and demographics and the talents and strengths of their parish community. The Forum is sponsored by both the Archdiocese of Western Pennsylvania and the Diocese of the Midwest, OCA. 

Speakers and Topics

The agenda will include workshops, presentations from experienced , small group discussions Additional info on speakers, potential topics and registration can be found on the vent webpage: here.

Location and Cost

Speakers facilitators and content for this event will be top notch. Yet, because of financial support received from both dioceses costs will below. Lodging is reasonable – a block of rooms has been reserved at $68/night. Registration costs will be $100/attendee. We expect to be able to provide partial travel cost reimbursement for parishes that need it.  The venue, while outside of our Diocese, is at the intersection of I-77 and I-70 ~ 2 hours west of Pittsburgh.
