Rest in peace. One million euros for the new wing at the Asylum in Sparta is a deed that can be seen with the eyes, not just words. Let our priest remember him at the Holy Liturgy next Sunday.

A good example is Georgios Loupos. The million he gave last April will be seen for years by the children and the elderly of the Asylum. I will also say a Trisagio this afternoon in Evangelistria.

Атанас Ангелов

God forgive him. One million euros for the new Asiloto wing in Sparta is not a small thing, it will serve people for years. I will also say a prayer this afternoon in the church.

Ioana Stan

Yes, Mihai, a million euros is not easy to forget, especially when you see how the old Asylum building looks now. I will also tell our father to remember him on Sunday, as you say. Rest in peace.

Yes, Mihai, a million euros is a concrete deed, not words. I hear the new wing will also have a small chapel for the elderly. Let the father commemorate him on Sunday, as you say. Rest in peace.

Andrei Constantinescu

Yes, Ioana, that old building really looks bad, I passed by it last week on the bus. A million euros will change things a lot there. The father will mention it, for sure. Rest in peace.

Yes, Andrei, I also saw that dilapidated building when I went to Sparti with my husband last month. One million euros will change everything, especially for the old people there. We will also remember him at the service on Sunday, may he rest in peace.

Alexandru Barbu

Yes, Andrei, I also passed by that old building a few times when I went to the football games in the area. A million euros will bring better security and new cameras, I think. I will also mention him at work. Rest in peace.

Viorica Lungu

Yes, Mihai, that million really matters. I also read that the new wing will have a small chapel, it seems well thought out for the elderly who can no longer walk far. I will also remember him at the funeral on Sunday, may he rest in peace.

Ilie Constantinescu

Yes, Andrei, I also read about this one million donation. The old building really needed a helping hand, especially for the elderly and sick there. I will also mention him in prayer, may he rest in peace.

Yes, Ilie, I also read about that million euros given last year. The old building really looked tired, especially in the bathroom and heating, where the elderly suffered the most. I will also remember him at the Holy Liturgy on Sunday, may the Lord rest him.
