Dear Parishioners of Holy Anargyroi Greek Orthodox Church

Dear Parishioners of Holy Anargyroi Greek Orthodox Church:

Now that things have settled down a little, I would like to tell you a little about myself and my family.

I was born on August 19, 1976 in Salina, Kansas to Robert and Lucinda Muñoz and have two younger brothers, Aaron and Matthew.

Presbytera Michelle and I were married on January 2, 1999 at Annunciation Greek Orthodox Church in Kansas.

On August 3, 2003 I was ordained as a Deacon at Annunciation Greek Orthodox Church in Kansas City, Missouri by His Eminence, Metropolitan Isaiah of Denver.

I graduated from Holy Cross Greek Orthodox School of Theology, with a Master’s of Divinity in May 2004.

On August 1, 2004 I was ordained to the Holy Priesthood at Holy Taxiarhai and Saint Haralambos Greek Orthodox Church in Niles, Illinois by His Eminence, Metropolitan Iakovos of Chicago.

I was assigned to Sts. Constantine and Helen Greek Orthodox Church in Rockford, Illinois and bestowed the title of Proistamenos.

Presbytera and I have three children: Gabriel, Nina and Sebastian. We look foward to meeting each and every one of you.

In Orthodoxy,
+Fr Mark

"Be then Thyself, O Lord, instead of me, the Pastor and Teacher of Thy sheep, which Thou hast entrusted to me; lead them Thyself from spiritual and carnal wolves; guide Thou their feet into the way of truth, righteousness, and peace. Be unto them, instead of me, Light, Eyes, Mouth, Hands, and Wisdom; but, above all, be unto them the Love in which I, a sinner, am so wanting!" --St. John of Kronstadt
