Good Morning Fr. Barnabas,
When are you breaking ground for your Church expansion. We started a new parish in June 2006 with 53 Stewards – We have worked very hard on fundraising and flipping properties. Our parish name is All Spirit Greek Orthodox Church and we are located in Omaha, NE. We have raised $9M and we have doubled the size of our membership. With our Lord’s help we are set to break ground on September 14th. Please pray for us. Your Faithful reader, Paul
Hey Paul,
We broke ground a few months ago and have started clearing the land for construction. We are still in fundraising mode and hope to have raised an additional 2 million by year’s end.
You can keep up with our progress on our parish website!
Good strength to you and your community as you build this icon of paradise in Omaha!
