A big thank you from the Academy to the Albishara Orthodox Church in San Bernardino, CA.
At a recent parish meeting, the Albishara Church decided and voted to donate 1% of their Annual Budget, (The Parish Mite Program) in an end of the year gift, to the work and mission of the GreatMartyr Euphemia Orthodox Theological Academy.
Albishara’s gift will go to helping Arabic speaking Christians under persecution receive scholarships and fee waivers, via the M.E.S.S.I.A.H. Scholarship Fund, and to promote the work of the Academy both here, and abroad.
Thank you Albishara Orthodox Church for your apostolic zeal, your sacrificial offering, and the spirit of giving which is so iconic, and indicative of the Christian spirit throughout the ages.
Sincerely,
The Academy Staff
Fr. John A. Peck, Dean
Fr. Thaddaeus Hardenbrook, President
Archimandrite Damaskinos Alazrai, Chairman
Your parish can do this, too. Remember, lead by example. Go here to make a donation, or contact us if you wish to follow Albishara’s example.
