A note from the Warden / Webmaster.

Recently I have received a number of anonymous complaints
about the lack of information being posted on this website.

Sorry that more information has not been more forth coming.

A number of complaints have been posted that there have been no notices about Weddings or Funerals.
This has not happened because no one has wished to have this information posted.
I respect people's privacy and will not post information not requested.

Since I am primarily serving the duties of Warden, hold a full-time job and have a family to attend to,
I do not have very much time to maintain this website.

I try to post the calendar and Major activities when I can.

I would enjoy it if someone who has webmaster experience to volunteer to take over this site.

But until then I will update as often as I have time.

  • We hope we might trouble you to consider giving to several worthy causes if God has blessed you with the means to do so:

    The St. Nicholas Ugandan Children's Fund provides for the education, health, and well-being of Ugandan children, young adults, and families.
    They provide food and clothing to orphans and vulnerable children, enabling them to attend school.
    While the charity helps children regardless of religion, it is I believe run by Orthodox Christians and there is a small but thriving indigenous Orthodox church under the Patriarchate of Alexandria.

    If you are interested in helping, you can send donations to:
         The St. Nicholas Uganda Children's Fund,
         P.O. Box 285
         Chardon, OH 44024-0285
