Keynote Speaker: Father Noah Bushelli, an archpriest in the Antiochian Orthodox Christian Archdiocese of North America, is grateful to be married to a living saint, Kh. Elizabeth, who homeschools their ten children (three of whom are now in college). Father was baptized into the Orthodox Church in 1994 at St Peter and Paul, in Ben Lomond, CA. After graduating from University of Alaska Anchorage with a B.Ed. in 2000, they moved to St. Vladimir's Seminary where he graduated with an M.Div. in 2004 with his thesis exploring St. John Chrysostom's notion of the Church as a Spiritual Hospital. He was ordained to the holy diaconate on Christmas 2002 and the holy priesthood on Ss. Peter and Paul day 2003. After serving St. Nicholas in Bridgeport, CT for three years he moved to St. Philip in Souderton, PA in 2006, where he is the pastor. He is grateful to raise his family in this warm, generous, faithful and vibrant community and is working very hard to meet the demands of active parish life and not forget "the one thing needful".

Fr. Noah is the founding director of Saint Emmelia Ministries, an outreach of the Department of Homeschooling of the Antiochian Archdiocese. He is lead catechist and spiritual advisor of St. Raphael School and is excited to share his love for God and the Church.
