Dear Readers, since I did not meet my fundraising goal a few months ago in the Spring, and currently am facing a bit of a financial burden that may hinder me from working on this website for a while within a few days, I thought it would be best to appeal to your help to meet my goal at this time. My work here depends on your help, so if you find it beneficial or of interest, please send your financial support. It is greatly appreciated.



Goal: $220 or $3000

Holy Week and Pascha In Colombia


In an atmosphere of Christian brotherly love and solidarity Pascha was celebrated in the small community of Orthodox Christians in the city of Cucuta in Colombia. The young priest of the church, Fr. Timothy Torres, led the Holy Week and the Resurrection services in the small humble Orthodox church. And on Pascha Sunday there were celebrations with the elderly who found a warm hug and hospitality in a small nursing home supported by the Orthodox community.

In this community is proof that acts of love and strength are produced by those who have faith in God, even amidst extreme poverty, social problems, and the weather. It is significant that recently the area was affected by torrential rains and extreme weather events, further complicating the lives of ordinary people.
