The Synod of Bishops, NY: The venerable Synodal building, home of the Miracle-working Kursk-Root Icon and its Cathedral, was the site of the glorification of the New Martyrs and many other saints. Donated by Sergei Semenenko in 1957 to give our Church a safe and secure headquarters, the upkeep of the center of the Church Abroad is of general importance for us all.
