Building Update

The Monastery building project continues. The tile has been completed in two of the bathrooms in the monastic cells, with the Trapeza’s kitchen floors scheduled to be completed soon. The first photograph shows off our new Trapeza, with the beautiful new Brazilian Tigerwood floors.

The second photograph displays the beginnings of the wisteria adorning the pergola that fronts the St. John Chapel.

The third photograph was emailed to the monastery by our friend and benefactor, Doctor Robert Fouty, showing the progress on the new iconastasis.

Don’t forget to place the date for the upcoming Monastery Pilgrimage on your calendars, dear friends. Our annual Monastery Pilgrimage takes place on Saturday, August 16th. We have room for tents, if you are so inclined, and there are plenty of B&B’s on the island, for those who are coming from distances.

Progress!

The brotherhood rejoices at the progress being made toward the completion of the Monastery. The Church of the Holy Protection, the Metropolitan Laurus Memorial Library and Sitting Room, and the Trapeza, are all nearing completion.

We hope to have the onion dome placed on the church by mid June. The new Brazilian Tigerwood floors in the church and trapeza are absolutely spectacular, and the permanent iconostasis will be installed in a few weeks.

We wish to once again thank all our benefactors and friends for your continued financial support, making all this possible! May God bless all of you!

Trapeza Work Continues

The still unfinished trapeza during the Paschal Feast! The hardwood floors will be put down in both the temple and in the trapeza towards the end of Bright Week. The completed onion dome should be up by the middle of June!
