Bloomington, Indiana – The Saint John of Damascus Society, founded in 2011, is a new sacred arts organization that seeks to promote excellence in the liturgical music of the Orthodox Christian Church, regardless of ethnic/national heritage of style, as well as support related outreach, educational, and academic efforts.

Publication in both print and electronic form will be twice-yearly, and the first issue will appear in January 2013. The language of the journal will be English.

Paraklitiki welcomes quality essays and articles dealing with any aspect of
