Если ты хочешь помочь Церкви, то старайся лучше исправить себя самого, а не других.
Если ты исправишь себя самого, то сразу же исправится частичка Церкви.

DearChurch Family: As you know, the physical plant of our church needs attention. It
has been several years since anything has been done. There will be a
considerable amount cost to affect the repairs and restoration listed
below.
We call on our Parish Family to help raise the necessary funds.
The new
floor of the Hall under the church has been has been completed.
There remains to finish the surface with carpet, paint or tile.
We
have a major project to work on, and that is to replace the old, inefficient
and costly heating system for the building. The system is not
only outdated, but very costly to operate.... due to the high cost of
petrol fuel. It is hoped that enough funds can be raised
to install a Forced Air Heating and Cooling System
We pray that the installation of the new system can begin this summer
(2009.) The estimated cost is $5.000.00. With out volunteer
help the cost would be much higher.
The Three Cupola on our church is in desperate need to
be repaired. An estimate for this work has not yet been
received.
Our Little Church is weatlhty spirituality but not so much so
materially so we will call upon everyone, members and friends to help restore
the glory of of God and Orthodoxy our beloved ChurchBuilding, and
as an affirmation our Faith and Love for our Holy Russian Orthodox
Faith.
Updates will be posted here. If you have a question
regarding this or wish to contribute, please contact our Pastor Father Alexey,
or the attendant at the candle desk.
Should you require additional services Molebin, Panahida, Baptism,
Marriage or Funeral please see Father or the person at the Candle/Sales Desk at
the rear of the church.
