Please Help Us To Adorn a Beautiful Church for St. Irene!
An Appeal from St. Irene of Chrysovalantou Church (G.O.C.) to the Fathers and Brethren of the Holy Metropolis, and to All the Pious Christians Who Venerate Our Wonderworking Saint
Through the prayers of St. Irene of Chrysovalantou, the Lord has enabled us to obtain an attractive property in an excellent location in Mt Vernon, Washington Township.
This building has a church and everything else we need to continue Saint Irene's mission in the years to come, for God's glory. The building was a Methodist church, and we will need to retrofit it to a Traditional Orthodox church after the purchase.
We now come to you, our brothers and sisters in Christ, to ask your help to adorn our new home with fitting iconography.
As we know from long experience, her prayers are great, and she takes tender care of those dedicated to her veneration. St. Irene deserves to have a fitting shrine within the Genuine Orthodox Church for all who wish to make pilgrimage here in North America, or who want to request her help from afar.
