Saints Peter and Paul Antiochian Orthodox Church in Salt Lake City is one of the many parishes across America experiencing considerable growth over the past few years. In fact, the parish has been growing exponentially for more than a decade already.
And over a dozen people received holy illumination there this past weekend.
OrthoChristian previously reported that 31 people were received into the Church at Sts. Peter and Paul on Holy Saturday, and this past Saturday, November 7, nineteen people were baptized at the parish, led by Fr. Paul Truebenbach.
“19 newly illumined here in Salt Lake! Glory to God and many years!” a parishioner reported on X yesterday.
Sts. Peter and Paul’s hundreds of parishioners represent a variety of cradle and convert backgrounds. Being in Salt Lake City, the parish is right in the heart of Mormon country and has become a hub for former Mormons embracing the true faith.
