Oratorical Festival

Introduced in 1983, the St. John Chrysostom Oratorical Festival provides Greek Orthodox teenagers the opportunity to write and talk about their faith. The Oratorical Festival Program begins at the parish level and is divided into three divisions:

Elementary Division (local festivals only) for students in grades 4-6

Junior Division for students in grades 7-9

Senior Division for students in grades 10-12

Topics are announced by the Archdiocese each Fall.
