Pomoć za Crkvu Rođenja Presvete Bogorodice u Zenici

Draga braćo i sestre,

Pozivamo vas da, u skladu sa svojim mogućnostima, budete deo akcije prikupljanja sredstava za obnovu naše crkve Rođenja Presvete Bogorodice u Zenici – svetinje koju su naši preci sagradili s puno požrtvovanja, vere i ljubavi.

Trenutno je u toku važan projekat – uvođenje grejanja u crkvi, koje se prvenstveno radi kako bi se freske zaštitile od vlage i propadanja. Ove svetinje na zidovima predstavljaju neprocenjivu duhovnu i kulturnu vrednost za našu zajednicu u Zenici i šire.

Sledeći korak u obnovi je obnavljanje fasade, koja je poslednji put rađena pre više od 15 godina, i koja je već sada vidno oštećena.

Naša crkva nije samo građevina – ona je duhovni dom koji nas povezuje s našim precima, koji su vekovima unazad bili njen živi deo. U njoj su se okupljale generacije u najvažnijim trenucima svojih života; mnogi od nas su se tu krstili, naši roditelji su se tu venčavali, a mnogi su se i poslednji put oprostili od svojih najmilijih upravo u ovom svetom hramu.

Uz vašu dobru volju i Božiju pomoć, verujemo da ćemo uspeti da otrgnemo našu svetinju od propadanja i udahnemo joj novi život.

Hristos među nama! – Jeste i biće!

Dear brothers and sisters,

We invite you, in accordance with your means, to take part in a fundraising campaign for the restoration of our Church in Zenica — a sacred place built by our ancestors with great sacrifice, faith, and love.

We are currently undertaking an important project — installing heating in the church, primarily to protect the frescoes from moisture and deterioration. These sacred images on the walls are of priceless spiritual and cultural value to our community in Zenica and beyond.

The next step in the restoration process is the renovation of the church façade, which was last done more than 15 years ago and is now visibly damaged.

Our church is not just a building — it is a spiritual home that connects us with our ancestors, who were a living part of it for centuries. Generations have gathered here during the most important moments of their lives; many of us were baptized here, our parents were married here, and many have said their final goodbyes to loved ones in this very holy temple.

With your goodwill and God’s help, we believe that we will succeed in saving our holy place from decay and breathe new life into it.

Christ is among us! – He is and shall be!
