The Orthodox Bookmobile

Eight years ago, Basileios and I traveled with our good friends to Libertyville, IL, for the glorification feast of Saint Mardarije of Libertyville.

On the way there, our friend Rajko said, "With all the Potamitis' books in here, this is not just an automobile—it's 'The Orthodox Bookmobile!'" And this is how the Orthodox Bookmobile was born, on the road between two Orthodox Monasteries: Saint John Chrysostom's in Kenosha, MI, and Saint Sava's in Libertyville, IL.

Since then, Basileios and I have roamed the country in a vehicle provided by God's Grace and Providence every summer. Again this summer, the Orthodox Bookmobile is going on the road, and we are crossing the Missouri-Kansas state line heading to the West Coast.

Are you and your parish located anywhere in Continental North America and north of the border with Mexico? Does your parish have families with children? Would you like to see our beautiful collection of more than 222 books for Orthodox children? Send an email to dionysios@potamitis.us.

P.S. No parish/monastery/Orthodox bookstore is too small or too far off the Interstate for us to visit!

The program for Summer '25 is taking form:

June 10-18 Oklahoma City, OK

June 20-30 SF, CA

July 12-18 Phoenix, AZ

All dates are approximate; as we get closer, we will know the exact dates.

 Shall we come to your parish?
