Dear Gerondissa Thekla,

The grace of our Lord Jesus Christ, the love of God the Father and communion of the Holy Spirit be with you always.

When I visited our Monastery on Monday, May 22nd, you kindly showed me around the building under construction. It was a great pleasure and I thank you.

You informed me that it would take three and a half million dollars ($3,500,000) to finish the skeleton of the building. You also told me that a new organization of supporters of the Monastery has been established. I promised you that our Holy Archdiocese will donate for our Monastery and especially for this purpose, one million dollars ($1,000,000) if you and the friends of the Monastery first raise the remaining two and a half million dollars ($2,500,000). You can publish this letter.

I thank and congratulate you and the entire sisterhood as well as the friends of the Monastery for your good efforts.

I wish you every success. I shall look forward with great pleasure to your positive news.

With paternal love and warm wishes

THE ARCHBISHOP
