Lenten Commemoration of the Departed (Submission Form)

Almsgiving

It is customary in the Russian Orthodox Church when requesting prayers for the departed to bring an offering to God and His Church from the fruit of one’s labor. This act of almsgiving is spiritually beneficial both for the giver and for those departed ones on behalf of whom the gift is made (please be assured that we will fulfill your request for prayer regardless of whether or not you choose to make a donation). If you wish to do so, you may either donate online using the following button, or if you prefer you may send your offering via mail to the address below:

Holy Cross Monastery
Attn: Lenten Commemorations
505 Holy Cross Road
Wayne, WV 25570-5403

Thank you very much for your prayers and support!
