WHO ARE WE
[/vc_column_text][vc_empty_space alter_height=”none” hide_on_mobile=””][vc_column_text]Our parish was founded on 07 September 2008, and after 11 years of renting an Anglican Church (Saint Cyprian – Carlton, Nottingham) on 15 November 2019 we purchased our own Church together with the parish house and a generous parking lot, which we managed to acquire it through the joint efforts of the community and a loan from the bank.
From then until the present moment, we have made several improvements to the entire site, following that this year in September 2023, exactly 15 years later, we will start, perhaps the most important project so far – the transformation of the parish house into a cultural home where we want to take the following actions/activities of our Parish: the Romanian school, the parochial school, consular services, the national day, the patron of the Church and other community, social and pedagogical activities that will unite the Romanian community in the center of England even more, as well as ensure the continuity and dynamics of the identity our orthodox The total amount related to the realization of this great project is approximately £400,000.[/vc_column_text][vc_empty_space alter_height=”none” hide_on_mobile=””][vc_empty_space hide_on_mobile=””][vc_column_text]
ABOUT THE CHURCH
[/vc_column_text][vc_empty_space alter_height=”none” hide_on_mobile=””][vc_column_text]Romanian Orthodox Parish was founded for this purpose exactly: to bring the faithful closer to God and to unite them at the same time. That is why we are involved in several humanitarian projects and even more. Because that`s how it has to be, we have to give back from what we`ve received. Not all of us are equally blessed with material things, necessary things to survive. Some of us need your support.[/vc_column_text][vc_empty_space hide_on_mobile=””][vc_empty_space hide_on_mobile=””][/vc_column][vc_column width=”1/2″ icons_position=”left” css=”.vc_custom_1496156307227{padding-left: 5.2rem !important;}”][vc_single_image image=”3228″ img_size=”large” alignment=”right” style=”vc_box_shadow” el_class=”shadow”][/vc_column][/vc_row][vc_row][vc_column][vc_empty_space alter_height=”medium” hide_on_mobile=””][/vc_column][/vc_row][vc_row css=”.vc_custom_1689860863834{margin-left: 30px !important;}”][vc_column width=”1/2″][vc_empty_space alter_height=”medium” hide_on_mobile=””][vc_empty_space alter_height=”medium” hide_on_mobile=””][vc_column_text]
