Thank you for considering a gift!

Please consider supporting the philanthropic outreach of our Church through the Philoptochos Poor Box located in the Narthex. Each month 100% of the donations are designated for a local charity.

Please consider donating to the monthly charity. Submit a check payable to St. Sophia Philoptochos adding “Poor Box” to the memo line.  Thank you for your generosity!

The Philoptochos encourages memorial special services by offering to make Koliva for those having a memorial service.  Please contact Lucy Kline at lucyluwho@verizon.net or (215-206-8180) for more information or to order your Koliva.  All requests should be made (3) weeks in advance to allow time for proper preparation.  Koliva may be prepared traditional style or with pomegranates (if available).

To sponsor Koliva only, the fee is $125.  Please make checks payable to the St. Sophia Philoptochos.

Please remember to call the Parish Office first at 610-650-8960 if you are planning a memorial service.
