This past Sunday, our church school kids made Pascha cards—”Love letters”—for the Orthodox Church in Japan, especially those parishes that have been devastated by the major earthquake and tsunami.

After talking with a friend in Japan, we realized we need a lot more cards for the Churches – hundreds! So, we want to invite church school kids from other churches to also send Pascha cards. They don’t have to arrive on Pascha itself—anytime in the Pascha season is fine.

We can’t promise you’ll receive a reply, but I trust that these cards will be a blessing and encouragement!

Please help us by sending cards to any or all these churches (and if you take photos, send them in so we can post them here! info@stjuvenaly.org):
