Parish Membership Register St John the Evangelist Romanian parish Cambridge

As our Orthodox parish community in Cambridge continues to grow, we are establishing an official Parish Membership Register to deepen our connection with one another and ensure that our spiritual family remains united.

Signing up is voluntary and free, and offers you direct personal benefits, ensuring you are the first to know about service schedules, family-oriented events, and vital parish news, while also simplifying administrative processes for pastoral needs like baptisms, weddings,
or pastoral visits at home.

For the Parish Priest, this register is an essential tool to better know, understand, and serve the spiritual needs of the flock. Furthermore, by registering your membership, you help us build a stronger foundation for the future.
​Accurate numbers allow us to organize more effectively for charitable outreach, ambitious capital projects, and community initiatives that will serve our children for generations to come.
