Glory to Jesus Christ! Glory forever!

We continue to welcome numerous inquirers on a daily basis as we offer morning prayer (1st/3rd Hours) and at Divine Liturgy when our little storefront is close to being full!

We continue to beautify our little church space to the point of some calling our little Church… “Cathedral in a box.”

Our Church continues to foster our desire to welcome every person who comes through our doors as if they were a visiting angel. Through workshops, Church family gatherings, and daily services, our little Church has instilled that no matter the pain a person brings to our community, the love of Christ will meet them when they step into our little Church.

We ask for the continued support of STF, as we continue to beautify our little Church building so that when people come into our church, they don’t know whether they are in heaven or on earth. The purchasing of additional painted and beautiful icons will help us achieve that goal.

We also ask for the continued support of STF as we continue to establish a natural and Orthodox burial ministry. In acquiring a small area for an Orthodox cemetery and pairing it with a ministry of comforting and offering an Orthodox burial for those falling asleep in Christ, we can walk alongside our brothers and sisters in Christ as they enter a beautiful repose.

We are so thankful for the support of STF and give glory to God for our benefactors who we pray for daily.

Yours in Christ,

Fr. Photios
