THE TRADITION OF GIVING, BUILDING AND SUPPORTING
The tradition of giving, building and supporting has a long history in our Church, and the ethos of giving and supporting is deeply ingrained in our cultural fabric. Our Cathedral community has demonstrated over a century – long tradition of outstanding giving – both to the church and to those in need.
During the Great Depression, the Chicago Tribune reported that only two buildings were being built in the city of Chicago: a Post Office built by the Federal Government, and the Serbian Orthodox Church on Schiller Street built by the people of our community.
