On Saturday, May 30, 2009, Archimandrite Zacchaeus, Dean of St. Catherine the Great Martyr Church celebrated the Divine Liturgy of St. John Chrysostom entirely in English at the parish. The responses were sung by the native English speakers of the parish, mostly consisting of staff from the US Embassy in Moscow.

Following the Divine Liturgy Father Zacchaeus and those in attendance participated in a common meal which allowed them to share in informal fellowship and strengthen friendships among one another.
