THANK YOU FROM KOLO: Donors contributed $25,000.00 for Kosovo-Metohija Kids


On December 2, the Circle of Serbian Sisters held a fundraiser for the neediest children and families in Kosovo-Metohija. We are pleased to announce that, through the generosity of our parishioners, friends and the Cathedral Kolo, a check in the amount of $25,000.00 was forwarded to the Decani Monastery Relief Fund.

We have included a list of all donors, together with a response from Fr. Nektarios, President of the DMRF and Fr. Sava (Janjic), Abbott of the Decani Monastery. Please note that several cash contributions were received in envelopes without names of the donors, so we apologize that we were unable to include them on the list.

The Kolo wishes to thank each and every person and family that so generously sacrificed to help our suffering brothers and sisters in KiM. May God bless you all!


LETTER FROM FR. SAVA, DECANI MONASTERY

We are deeply grateful to the Lord and the Circle of Serbian Sisters of the Holy Resurrection Serbian Orthodox Cathedral in Chicago who gathered such an important donation for our suffering people in Kosovo-Metohija. Of course, we are aware that very few people would know about the plight of our people without the hard work and consistent testimony of our Fr. Nektarios and all of you from the DMRF. Therefore we see this donation as a great success of you all which only proves the importance of the DMRF in these difficult times.

Expressing our most sincere gratitude to all who contribute to the DMRF work we extend our prayers to the Lord to bless you all through the prayers of our patron saint St. Stefan of Decani.

We will do our best that all the money collected finds its way to those who need support in these cold winter days. Yesterday a cow and two calves were stolen to one Serbian family and we’ll take it as a priority case to help them buy the new animals to sustain their family. Regrettably Kosovo police does practically nothing to prevent recurrent thefts and other kinds of attacks on our people in Kosovo-Albanian majority areas. At the same time we’ll identify also the other priority cases and find the best way how to support them through the DMRF. May God reward you all for your brotherly efforts to help those in need.

Bishop Teodosije is sending his blessing while all of you remain in our constant prayers.

In Christ,
Fr. Sava
Abbot of the Decani Monastery
