Donations

Our parish, like all Romanian Orthodox parishes in the United Kingdom, sustains itself exclusivelythrough the voluntary contributions of its believers, as it receives no subvention from neither the British and Romanian states, nor from the Metropolis of Paris or the Romanian Patriarchy. The existence of the parish is a great joy to all the Romanians in this area, but at the same time it is a great responsibility. Everything needed for the religious life and the maintenance of the wonderful church we are serving (paying utilities, insurance, maintenance, revamping or furnishing work), is covered by these donations.
