Chicago, IL, September 2, 2026 — The Greek Orthodox Metropolis of Chicago is pleased to welcome Sandra Glisic as Director of Operations. Sandra, who is already serving in the role, brings nearly a decade of experience leading Orthodox nonprofits and managing church administration.

Добро е што ја создадоа оваа позиција по предлог на парохиите од минатогодишниот буџетски процес. Се надевам дека Сандра ќе успее да ги растовари клирите од административните работи, па да имаат повеќе време за луѓето. Честитки, и нека е со среќа во Чикаго.

Yes, it's good that the municipalities themselves made the proposal from the budget process. Hopefully Sandra will actually relieve the priests of a few mountains of files so that they can be with the people more. All the best to you in Chicago.

It's good that the parishes proposed this position right from last year's budget process. I hope that Sandra manages to take some of those papers from the priests' offices, to have more time for the parishioners. Good luck to her in Chicago!

Mirë që parohitë e propozuan vetë këtë vend pune gjatë procesit të buxhetit të vitit të kaluar. Shpresoj që Sandra ta lehtësojë barrën e letërkëmbimit për klerikët, që të kenë më shumë kohë për njerëzit. Sukses në Chicago.
