My parish is looking for iconostasis. Do you know about any parish that is closed or is trying to do something with iconostasis?
Or, where can I get icons prints that would b usable?

Hmm, a couple of parishes closed recently. The one that most immediately comes to mind is Holy Trinity in CT - but there may be one more recent (anyone?). HT belonged to the Eparchy of Passaic of the Ruthenians. I don't have any idea what has been done (if anything) with the liturgical furnishings (perhaps Chris/Job, stormshadow, or one of our other CT members knows?).

It might be worthwhile to have your Eparch get in touch w/ Bishop William in Passaic and inquire.

Many years,

Neil

Verby,

A few parishes have also closed down in the Cleveland, Ohio area under the direction of Bishop John of Parma. I'm not sure what the plans are for these beautiful old churches.

Peace.
John

There's a small Orthodox church near me that has closed and the building has been listed for sale in the realty magazines.
