Свети Никола у Приштини

У обновљеној Цркви Светог Николе у Приштини, која је била потпуно уништена у погрому 17. марта 2004, на градску и храмовну славу, окупило се јуче десет старијих Срба који живе у овом граду и око педесет гостију из целе земље.

Оцу Дарку са породицом, који живи у Приштини, из Лос Анђелеса је стигао епископ западноамерички Максим, који је заједно са владиком рашко-призренским Теодосијем служио литургију.

.

Владика Максим је након службе посетио село Доњу Брњицу где је ђацима Основне школе „Димитрије Прица” уручио новчану помоћ и пригодне поклоне. Новац су прикупиле чланице Кола српских сестара из региона Лос Анђелеса.

This book also focuses on women’s contributions that are too often overlooked. Ms. Jovanović’s study reveals that Jackson not only remains an original and symbolic home to Serbian Americans and Serbian Orthodox religion, but also an oasis where the Serbian community has preserved its positive reputation and social influence.
