We are beginning the translation of the Sinai Synaxarion from Greek into English. We are presently budgeting $500 a month for this. 

We also will need to purchase 100 ISBN numbers so that we can begin publishing under the Studion Ministries name. This will require around $600.

There are no other important expenses and anything received beyond this will go directly to St. Catherine's Monastery to help them during these difficult times. 

Update: Because of the extreme financial need of St. Catherine's right now, all money is going to meet their needs. We are waiting on the ISBN's and the translation is continuing without payment.

We were blessed to travel to Sinai this year while the coronavirus was barely more than a rumor in China. We got to see the new mixer for incense-making that with generous help and donations, we were able to fund the purchase of, in addition to other incense-making equipment and fragrance oils. And we were able to learn the art of incense-making by hand. This was an incredible experience. We hope to bring incense back during our next trip to sell through the Studion Ministries store.
