Jacksonville, FL – His Grace Bishop Mitrophan of Eastern America visited St. King Milutin parish in Jacksonville, Florida from September 23-24, 2006. One of the reasons for the visit was the Benefactors Dinner organized to held raise funds to pay the mortgage of on their recently purchased property. The evening Vesper service, as well as the dinner following held in the church hall, were well attended. Church board president, Stanko Precanica and parish priest Fr. Stanislav Kravljaca welcomed all the guests. Additionally, the church board president from the neighboring Orlando parish, Jovan Dragosavac, and parish priest Fr. Ljubisa Brnjos, who had at one time been administrator of this parish, also greeted the guests.
The crown of the evening’s affair was the address given by His Grace Bishop Mitrophan. A substantial amount was collected that evening which will go towards the mortgage for which we remain grateful to all those that donated and once again proved their love towards their holy Church. The Holy Hierarchical Divine Liturgy was officiated the following day by His Grace Bishop Mitrophan.
