Charging ahead on building a new Church in Post Falls, Idaho [ extreme northern part of the state ] is the MP's Our Lady of Kazan parish. Hmm.
From January 2017, putting up the sheetrock
Church building on the right with parking spaces. Not sure what is on the left side. Looks like a long greenhouse ? More likely, that structure is unrelated to the mission and just borders it.
The current space used in Spokane :
Looking at the mission's website, I saw the answer to one of our member's earlier question about the precise natures of Mercy House.
Then, we see below that this new mission is directly under Fr Parr ! Could that STILL be the case ?
*******************************
"The Monastery of St. Mary of Egypt was founded as a part of a homeless shelter and mission known as "Mercy House" in Manhattan in New York in 1993 by Archmandrit Joachim (Parr).
In 2008 most of the brotherhood with their Elder moved to Treadwell (Catskill region of Upstate New York). Both the Our Lady of Kazan Church and the Skete are under the spiritual guidance of Father Joachim."

I recall seeing notices of when Fr Parr went to this Kazan mission to give the equivalent of a retreat or something similar.
I didn't realize he has - or HAD - this "first Russian Orthodox Church in Spokane" project directly under his spiritual direction. I wonder what the Priest here, a Fr. Dimitrian, and the parishioners think of Fr Parr's recent chastisement by the Moscow Patriarchate ?
