There was another
sale on Saturday, March 8. The making
and selling of pirohi has been a long
established tradition at St. Nicholas.
Parishioners, family, friends and
community continue to volunteer
their time for pirohi fundraisers. These
events not only help our church
financially, but create a strong church
community. Thanks to the GCU Parish
Matching Funds for the added boost to
the projects income.
