In 2001, with the blessing of the Archbishop of San Francisco and Western America, the parish, with great joy, was named after one of the most respected Russian woman saints, St, Xenia of Petersburg. She is the patroness of hearth and family happiness, peace and prosperity. Our priest is Father Paul Iwaszewicz.
We generally meet every first and third Sunday of the month and the preceding Saturday at the Veteran's Hall (2290 Willow Pass Road, Concord, CA 94522-0611) to pray.
