Добро е што го почнуваат токму на празникот на свети Пајсиј. Ќе го следам преку таа нова страна, https://stpaisios.church, да видам како напредува. Дај Боже да заврши убаво и да има полн храм.

Добро е што го почнуваат токму на празникот на свети Пајсиј, како што вели и Трајче. Јас ќе ја отворам страницата https://stpaisios.church да видам кога ќе почнат да копаат темелите на Airport Road. Дај Боже да има многу народ од Јордан и од дијаспората.

It's nice they picked St. Paisios's feast day to announce it, just like Trajche and Elena said. I'll check the new site too, stpaisios.church, to see the progress on Airport Road. Hope the church fills up with folks from Jordan and the diaspora when it's done.

Yes, tying it to St Paisios's feast day makes sense — those three saints have helped so many of us keep going. I'll have a look at stpaisios.church tonight after choir practice; curious to see the first photos from Airport Road. Have you been to Jordan yourself?

Добро је што су баш на празник светог Пајсија најавили градњу. Пратићу страницу https://stpaisios.church да видим како ће изгледати храм на Airport Road. Дај Боже да се скупи доста народа из Јордана и дијаспоре, као што кажу и остали.

Yeah, announcing it on St. Paisios's feast day feels right. I just popped over to stpaisios.church during my lunch break and the renderings of the Airport Road spot already look solid. You planning to visit once it's built, or maybe support from here with the kids?

Хорошо, что начали именно в день святого Паисия, как все здесь пишут. Посмотрю сайт stpaisios.church после смены на кухне, интересно, какие там первые фото с Airport Road. Дай Бог, чтобы храм собрал много народу и из Иордании, и из диаспоры.

Yeah, announcing it on St Paisios's feast day ties the whole thing together nicely. I had a quick look at stpaisios.church this morning before school and the renderings of the Airport Road site are pretty clear. You thinking of chipping in for one of the icons once they start the interior fit-out?

Хорошо, что начали именно в день святого Паисия, как все здесь пишут. Посмотрю сайт stpaisios.church после того, как поливаю помидоры на даче, интересно, когда покажут первые фото с Airport Road. Дай Бог, чтоб храм собрал народ и из Иордании, и из диаспоры.

Добро кажа, Елена, баш на празникот на свети Пајсиј им дава посебна тежина на работите. Јас веќе ја отворив страницата, има убави слики од местото на Airport Road, ама сега чекам да видиме кога точно ќе почнат да копаат. Ти ќе се јавиш ако најдеш нешто ново таму?
