The Church Committee appeals to you with a heartfelt request for your support of our beloved church.<br>Easter is a time when we especially keenly feel God&#8217;s love, His mercy, and the gift of new life. During these days, each of us strives to express our gratitude to the Lord not only through prayer but also through deeds.<br>Our church thrives on the labors, prayers, and sacrificial love of our parishioners. Thanks to your support, we can continue our services, care for the beauty of God&#8217;s house, and preserve the spiritual life of the community. If you are able, we ask that you bring your Easter gift for the needs of the church. Any amount is a contribution to our common cause, to the strengthening of our parish family, and to the glory of God. Donations can be made in any way convenient for you:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li>via PayPal (see our website, mark &#8220;Easter Gift&#8221;);<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>by check made payable to the church (Paroisse St. S\u00e9raphim);<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>in person, during church services (please place your donation in an envelope and write &#8220;Easter Gift&#8221; on it).<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">We thank you from the bottom of our hearts for your kindness and love for the house of God.
