Happy children at our special Christmas Lunch for Children
We, and the people we help here,
want to thank YOU!
We had tried, in previous versions of our web site, to thank every person who contributed to our mission, and to update this thank-you-list on an ongoing basis. We now realize that this is not practical. What we want to do here is express our appreciation in a more general way for the different kinds of help and support we recieve.
We first want to thank our monthly donors. These are the people who somehow find a way, every month, to make an ongoing contribution to our mission. You can't imagine how important that is to us, 
for planning purposes, to be able to count on this support every month and to feel that ongoing connection with these supporters. In a very real way, they validate our purpose and our struggle here.
Next, we want to thank the individuals and churches that have heard of our mission needing something and responded in a big way. Things like money for a piece of kitchen equipment, or a shortfall in our funds for buying food or for making our missionary budget. These people and organizations, in hearing of our diffculties, have stepped up and have really helped keep our mission alive.
We also want to thank each and every person who has donated to us, large and small. We have even had $5 donations from children that have meant so much to us. We work every day to reach out and to put your hard earned money to good use here by helping the poor and showing them the love of Christ through our work and the work of the Orthodox Church.
And finally, thanks to everyone who has helped us with our fundraising trips to the United States. From arranging speaking opportunities, to putting us up in your homes, to lending us your cars and feeding us, we want to sincerely say thank you!
If you are interested in having an Orthodox missionary speak at your church or event, we would be very grateful and blessed to have George visit you.
Your help and donations put food on the table for a lot of hungry people - THANK YOU!!!
