  • St. Basil's after Covid - One Year Later report
    March 28, 2021
    Click the title to see a summary of work that was undertaken over this unusual year. In March 2020, St. Basil’s Parish was planning to celebrate its 60th anniversary. Among other events, a gala dinner was planned and a series of lectures with well-known Catholic and other spiritual leaders … and then the pandemic shut everything down. It could have meant that our parish would simply go into a hiatus until this was over. Instead, we can look back on this past year with wonder and pride that we have pulled together, adapted to the new normal and continued to be a vibrant and supportive spiritual community, (not to mention with lots of help from Zoom)!
