PSANIE
IN THE NAME OF THE MOST HOLY TRINITY, OUR GOD WHO IS ONE IN BEING AND THREE IN PERSONS, THIS CHURCH WAS BUILT IN 1867 WITH THE DEDICATION OF ST. M. MC. GHEORGHE, IN GHIDION COUNTY, STĂNIŢA COMMUNE, NEAMŢ COUNTY, BY THE FAMILY OF BOYAR GHEORGHE AND ADELA SCORȚESCU. IN 1964, DURING THE PASTORATE OF PS PARTENIE CIOPRON, THE CHURCH WAS RESTORED BY THE CARE OF PRIEST CONSTANTIN ARDELEANU, RECEIVING THE DEDICATION OF ST. M. MC. DIMITRIE, THE MYRRH SPRINGER.

THE RUTHLESS TOOTH OF THE TIME HAS ALSO LEFT ITS MARK ON THIS PLACE OF WORSHIP, THUS REACHING AN ADVANCED STATE OF DEGRADATION. WITH THE BLESSING OF HIS EMINENCE EFTIMIE LUCA, THE TENANT OF THE PLACE, PRIEST VASILE STAN STARTED AN AMPLE ACTION OF CONSOLIDATION AND RESTORATION OF THE CHURCH. THE FOUNDATIONS WERE RESTORED, THE WALLS WERE STRENGTHENED, THE ROOF WAS RESTORED, THE PORCH WAS ADDED, THE CHURCH AND PARTS OF THE EXTERIOR WERE PAINTED INSIDE. THEN THE HOLY PLACE WAS EQUIPPED WITH CHURCH FURNITURE, AS WELL AS WITH ALL THE NECESSARY RELIGIOUS OBJECTS AND BOOKS.

THE FUNDS FOR THIS NOBLE WORK CAME FROM THE GOOD FAITHFUL, DILIGENT AND GENEROUS ONES OF THE PARISH AND FROM SOME CENTRAL AND LOCAL STATE INSTITUTIONS.

THIS CHURCH WAS CONSECRATED LIKE A HEAVENLY ARK DESCENDED TO EARTH TOGETHER WITH THE OTHER BUILDINGS THAT COMPLETE THE ARCHITECTURAL ENSEMBLE OF THE CHURCH SETTLEMENT IN THE VILLAGE OF GHIDION, ON SUNDAY, THE SIXTH DAY OF RAPTURE, INDICTION 2015, BY HIS EMINENCE IOACHIM, ARCHBISHOP OF ROMAN AND BACĂU, SURROUNDED BY A GROUP OF PRIESTS AND DEACONS, WITH THE PARTICIPATION OF NUMEROUS BELIEVERS IN THE AREA.

WRITE, LORD, IN THE BOOK OF LIFE THE NAMES OF THE FOUNDING AND RENEWING FOUNDERS TOGETHER WITH DONORS, BUILDERS, BENEFACTORS, PAINTERS, MERCY GIVERS, WORSHIPPERS AND ALL THOSE WHO LOVE THE BEAUTY OF YOUR HOME.

MAY THY MERCY BE UPON US, OH LORD, AS WE HAVE HOPED IN THEE. ETERNAL REMEMBRANCE BE TO THE FOUNDERS, FOUNDERS AND RENEWERS!
