Dear Supporters of our Monastery!
As you may know, part of our apiary burnt down in 2014, causing $20,000 worth of damage. Brother Lev, our beekeeper, has been trying to rebuild it as well as he can. He needs to repair an existing building in order to process this year's harvest. So far he has been extracting honey by hand in the kitchen!
We have already invested in digging a well and extending power lines to the apiary to provide water and electricity to the site.
Now we need $4,000 to make essential repairs to the apiary building in order to process honey normally this year.
The apiary has been an important part of the monastery for decades. We need your support for the apiary to continue to operate.

With love in Christ,
Archimandrite Luke
