Rev. Sebastian Dabovich, who has charge of the chapels of the Greek church for Washington and Oregon, has arrived in the city and will hold services for the next four weeks in the chapel near Lake Union. English services and a sermon in English will be given every Sunday at 7 p.m.
The Greek church has two chapels in California, one in Oregon and one in Seattle and has members scattered through Victoria, Port Angeles and other cities. There are 130 members here in winter and eighty in summer, principally Greeks, but there are some Russians, Slavonians and Arabs.
The chapel is located one black from the Lake street care line and can be distinguished by a Greek cross on the cupola.1
