The construction of the first and only Orthodox church in the Caribbean, started three years ago, is nearing completion. To ensure the Caribbean Gračanica shines in its full glory, support from everyone is needed.
In addition to donations, you can contribute to the construction of the Serbian church by attending a charity event in Chicago on February 16. The event will feature live music, food, drinks, and camaraderie, with all proceeds going toward the church construction fund.
The Caribbean Gračanica is a replica of the renowned Gračanica Monastery in Kosovo, designed by architects Peđa and Sava Ristić, who were also behind the Hercegovina Gračanica in Trebinje. The unique design includes 16 slender columns instead of four massive ones, creating a more dynamic interplay of arches that has captivated experts.
Despite numerous challenges during construction, the work is now in its final stages. The remaining interior work still requires donations. If you wish to support the construction of this Orthodox sanctuary, you can do so HERE.
This Orthodox church in the Caribbean stands as a symbol of unity among all Orthodox peoples in the region, welcoming local Orthodox believers and tourists who visit during their vacations.
