PETITION AGAINST SCHOOL BOARD TAKE OVER OF CHURCH PROPERTY

PETITION AGAINST SCHOOL BOARD TAKE OVER OF CHURCH PROPERTY

Orthodox Christian Network – May 2016

The community of Ss. Peter and Paul Serbian Orthodox Church in Oakville, Ontario has been shaken by the alarming news that all ten acres of their parish church is going to be taken away by the Halton District School Board for the purpose of building a high school.

The community of Ss. Peter and Paul Serbian Orthodox Church, the spiritual, cultural, and social gathering place for over 750 families in Oakville has been at their current location since 1980.

The parish is also the first Orthodox place of worship in their region, ministering to Romanian, Coptic, Russian and Greek Orthodox families.

Although the community has offered a portion of their property, so they might remain at their current location, the school board is not budging. They want all ten acres. Forcing them to sell the property would be the end of their parish because, as the city has made clear to them, there are no viable properties to offer in exchange.

If you are interested in the faithful of Ss. Peter and Paul Serbian Orthodox Church, please sign the petition.

This petition will be delivered to the Halton District School Board, the mayor of the Town of Oakville, Members of Parliament, Trusties and others.
