Donate
Every donation, large or small, is a blessing that helps us continue our work in faith and church service.
Supporting Church Activities
Donations are essential for the daily operations of the St. Ivan Rilski Bulgarian Orthodox Church in Chicago, including the priest’s salary, loan repayments, utilities, and maintenance, so that the church can continue to function and serve its members and the wider community.
Worship and Spiritual Growth
Donations help restore, maintain, and improve our church facilities, providing a warm and sacred space for worship, prayer, and community gatherings, and support educational programs, Bible studies, and spiritual retreats.
Youth and Family Programs
Donations support programs for children and youth, such as Sunday school, youth groups, and educational activities, nurturing the spiritual and personal development of young members in a positive, faith-based environment.
