**RANDOLPH, NJ —** Holy Trinity Orthodox Church [celebrated its 62nd anniversary](https://orthochristian.com/180844.html) on Oct. 10–11, 2026, with a visit from Abp. Michael, the miraculous myrrh-streaming Hawaiian Iveron Icon of the Mother of God, and the presentation of relics of two Orthodox saints.

During Great Vespers on Saturday, Abp. Michael presented the parish and its rector, Archpriest David R. Fox, with a new Antimension containing relics of St. Basil Martysz, a Polish saint who served in America and died in 1945\. St. Basil was a protégé of St. Tikhon of Moscow.

The Archbishop also presented the parish with a reliquary containing a fragment of the relics of St. Olga of Alaska, the first woman saint of North America. The relic was a gift from Abp. Alexei and the Diocese of Sitka and Alaska, honoring the saint’s quiet life of service and ministry to women.

On Sunday, a large crowd gathered to venerate the Hawaiian Iveron Icon before and after the Hierarchical Divine Liturgy, followed by an Akathist service. During the Liturgy, Abp. Michael blessed six catechumens preparing to receive baptism and chrismation under Fr. David’s guidance.
