On Sunday, March 29, 2015, the fifth Sunday of Great Lent and feast day of Saint Mary of Egypt, His Grace Bishop John, Administrator of the Patriarchal Parishes in the USA, and His Grace Bishop Nicholas of Manhattan, Vicar Bishop of the Eastern American Diocese of the Russian Orthodox Church Outside of Russia, celebrated Divine Liturgy at Saint Nicholas Patriarchal Cathedral in New York along with the cathedral clergyman.

After the reading of the Gospel, Bishop John delivered a sermon. After augmented litany, the archpasto read a special prayer for peace in Ukraine.
