Recently His Grace, Geevarghese Mar Coorilos, Metropolitan of Bombay of the Orthodox Syrian Church (Malankara) visited St Tikhon's Seminary and Fr. Alexander, Dean of St Tikhon's.

Fr. Alexander and Board of Trustees member John Malinchock were guests of Metropolitan Coorilos last August in India where they toured the St. Thomas Orthodox Theological Seminary in Nagpur and where they further solidified the relationship between the two seminaries and laid out a plan for continued cooperation and mutual support into the foreseeable future.
