The Central Council would like to advise that choir and deacons robes, veils and stoles are available for purchase from the Council. The robes are made of a 65% - 35% cotton/polyester fabric; choir robes have a light tan body and a burgundy yoke, deacons robes have the same body with a royal blue yoke. They come in sizes small, medium, large and extra large, and the lengths and sleeves can be adjusted to individual needs. The cost for the aforementioned robes is $80 each; stoles are $35 each, plus shipping charges. Veils are available at a cost of $10 each.
Smaller robes for youth choirs are also available and are made according to age; they are a solid light beige with no contrasting color, but with a trimming outlining the yoke. Their cost is $60 per robe, plus shipping.

After receiving new robes for your choir, please consider contributing your still servicable robes to our growing mission parishes. In this way, our new parishes will be able to use them whenever they have visiting priests to celebrate the Divine Liturgy. The Central Council will be grateful to hear from you.
