Our Sacred Mission

This page introduces our parish’s Exterior Sealing & Cladding Project—a milestone effort to seal, waterproof, and adorn the exterior walls, roof, and dome of our church, safeguarding the Holy Altar and the permanently enshrined holy relics of Saints Raphael, Nicholas, and Irene, and preserving our Byzantine basilica for generations to come.

The Commemorative Triptych

Your generous donation will allow these names to be commemorated in perpetuity, ensuring that your loved ones, both living and departed, are prayerfully lifted up before Christ at every Divine Liturgy.

During the Proskomide, the priest offers particles of bread on the diskos for Christ, the Theotokos, the saints, and for all the faithful whose names are submitted—living and departed. As taught by the Greek Orthodox Archdiocese of America, this is not merely symbolic; it is a mystical act, where the Church in heaven and on earth gathers around Christ. Through your participation in the commemorative triptych, you join this holy offering and entrust your loved ones to God’s eternal mercy—making them a lasting part of the Church’s most sacred prayer.

From Our Parish

Dear Brothers and Sisters in Christ,

Once again, our parish has reached a milestone in our ongoing mission to preserve and beautify our sacred space. This Exterior Sealing & Cladding Project represents not just physical renovation, but a spiritual commitment to future generations who will worship within these walls and before the holy relics of our patron saints.

Through this commemorative triptych, we invite you to become part of our church’s living history. Your participation ensures that your loved ones—living and departed—will be remembered in the most sacred prayers of our Faith, lifted up before Christ at every Divine Liturgy.

We ask for your prayers and welcome all to share time, talent, and treasure towards this monumental project. Consider how you can join us so that we can complete this task together for the Glory of God!
