Fr. Matthew Baker, a young priest in the Greek Orthodox
Metropolis of Boston, was called from this life as a result of an auto accident
late yesterday afternoon. He was a deeply devoted priest, husband and
father of six children. We grieve for the acute loss of his presence and
ministry and offer prayers for the repose of his soul. May God’s comfort
be in abundance to his wife, Presbytera Katherine, his children and extended
family.
I will not try and report all that is available about this
tragedy on-line right now, but I would like to make a few links available as a
testament to his life and ministry. You’ll also find a link to a “Go Fund
Me” site that has been set up to benefit his family.
