ONE: UPDATE ON NEW BUILDING PROGRESS
Thank God, we were able to submit all paperwork needed to get onto the agenda for the May meeting of the Lima Township Planning Commission! Things are moving forward! What can YOU do? Speak with one of our STV Financial Ambassadors about how you can best support our new building project. Challenge yourself. Everyone’s contribution is needed and appreciated. And then pray. Read the prayer of St. Gabriel of Georgia every day, that the Lord’s will be done in this and every aspect of our parish life at STV! Where can you find that prayer? Right here:

TWO: ALL-ENGLISH SERVICES THIS FRIDAY/SATURDAY!
Sometimes Orthodox Christianity is called the best kept secret in America. Maybe that isn’t really true anymore – lots of people are learning about Orthodox Christianity and visiting STV. But we want to make it AS EASY AS POSSIBLE for people to access the Divine Services of the Holy Church – the Theology in Action that has led so many to transformation in Christ and to sainthood. Yes – the Church is in the business of making saints. So invite your friends and loved ones to become saints! Invite them to the an all-English service and join them there! Make sure that Orthodoxy is NEVER AGAIN the best kept secret in America!

FOUR: STV FINANCIAL AMBASSADORS – BUILDING OUR NEW CHURCH
At our parish meeting on Sunday, February 15, 2026 we made a very exciting decision! We voted to accept a revised design for our parish Church. The parish assembly empowered the parish council to build the church either to the south of the present parish church or to the north of our parking lots (on the festival field) – whichever is most financially advantageous for the parish. We are working hard to figure out that financial question now, and making good progress. But we need to pay for this revised design too. As we said at the meeting – we will pay for this in two ways: EVERYONE tithing, and NAMING OPPORTUNITIES. In the coming weeks our parish Finance Ambassadors (Marina Edwards, Mikhail Fisenkov, Dmitri Knysh) will approach each of our parishioners to discuss how each will give his “mite” to make our project financially strong and successful. That is, how to establish a tithe that works for you. Those conversations will remain anonymous and confidential. When we voted for the original design there was support, but the building fund did not grow in any appreciable way for several months. Thank God – this led us to the revised design! But if we think that SOMEONE ELSE will build OUR new church – we are frankly deluded. WE need to do this. And WE = ALL. Please prayerfully consider how you can support the revised design. Then join the winning team! Leave an Orthodox legacy for your children, grandchildren, and people you do not even know!
FIVE: PASCHAL OPEN HOUSE AT FR. GREGORY’S IS MAY 3
