New icon screen was built for the parish of St. Kentigern

It was a great joy for the parish that several of its members had built a new icon screen. The screen is folding and portable, but still looks very attractive. Over the period of more than five weeks a group of parishioners (Anatoly, Andrey, Konstantin and others) spent selflessly many hours every day in order to get the screen ready for Easter. And they succeeded. Also altar and holy table were crafted for the church as well as the robes for them.

Originally not quite appropriate for a service room completely transfigured to host a celebration in truly orthodox decoration. The diocesan administration invited the parish to bring the new icon screen to the yearly conference of the Diocese of Sourozh, where joint church services took place, headed by the Bishop.
