Call for Support: New Temple Dedicated Saint Olga of Alaska
Following the Holy Synod of the Orthodox Church in America’s decision to bless Saint Olga to remain in Kwethluk, it was also agreed that a new Church dedicated to Saint Olga of Alaska would be built in the village. We have just begun this project and we wanted to share the first opportunity to support this project with each of you. While plans are still in the making, it’s our prayer that in addition to a beautiful temple built in honor of Saint Olga and to the Glory of our God, that we also consider constructing pilgrim quarters and a cultural center dedicated to the education and growth of the Yupik way of life and language. With God’s blessing, the people of Kwethluk have already secured the land for this project and now we are just in need of talent and monetary support to express our gratitude to the Saint who has been such a comfort for people, not only in Alaska, but throughout the world.
