Working Together for Our Church – Clean-Up Day Highlights
On Saturday, April 25, our parish of St. George Serbian Orthodox Church in Schererville was blessed with a beautiful and productive Church Clean-Up Day, as many dedicated volunteers gathered early in the morning to care for and improve our church property.
With great energy and a spirit of cooperation, parishioners of all ages participated in a wide range of projects, including:
- Grading of the old playground
- Work and improvements around the Old Hall
- Repainting the foundations of the light posts and parking curbs
- Organizing and cleaning inside the church library
- Trimming trees and landscaping
- Raking leaves
- Removing dry branches and clearing litter throughout the property
- And many other needed tasks
The day was a wonderful opportunity to serve God and one another, to strengthen our fellowship, and to take pride in the sacred place where we gather for worship and community life. It was especially encouraging to see so many parishioners working side by side with joy and enthusiasm, already expressing their willingness to return and help with future projects.
After the hard work, all volunteers enjoyed a delicious meal, including roasted lamb and lunch prepared for everyone who participated—an expression of gratitude and shared fellowship.
We extend our heartfelt thanks to everyone who came out to help. Your time, effort, and love for the Church are deeply appreciated. May God bless you abundantly for your kindness and dedication!
