Saint Sava celebration in Youngstown

The annual Saint Sava celebration was held at Holy Trinity Serbian Orthodox Church in Youngstown, Ohio on January 29th. 

Reverend Father Bosko Stojanovic, parish priest, began the day with the Holy Liturgy.  This year we were blessed with 22 participants in the program that offered poems, songs, and recitations.  This was a historic milestone for our parish since it was the 90th consecutive St. Sava banquet and program that took place in our local community.   The early Serbian pioneers who settled in the Youngstown area left their homeland and brought with them their faith and customs which we proudly continue today through the tradition of St. Sava.  Joining us in the celebration which took place in the Serbian Memorial hall was Reverend Father Dragan Goronjic.   Slavski Kumovi were Slavisa and Iadranca Vlaici and children Nikolas and Lukas.
