Financial Transparency

A clear view of the income and expenses of our parish

About

This page exists so our community can see, clearly and openly, how the church is supported, including its main sources of income and expenses.

Funding

Our parish does not receive funding from government programs, foreign institutions, the diocese, or any other religious institutions.

Expenses and Maintenance

All expenses are covered entirely by sell of candles, services, membership payments and donations from our community. The financial resources are used for:

    • the compensation of a priest fully devoted to serving the church
    • utilities and maintenance of the church building
    • spiritual services and worship
    • daily church and organizational activities.

The church exists and continues its mission only because people choose to support it.

We believe that transparency builds trust.

In the spirit of transparency and shared responsibility, anyone who wishes may support the church’s mission and activities by making a donation HERE

By sharing this information publicly, we invite understanding, accountability, and a shared sense of responsibility for the future of our church.
