The construction of the social-missionary center began in 2016. The blessing of the center also marks the 40th anniversary of the Fr. Mihai Zaharia’s ministry in Belcești.

The center is designed for a capacity of 200 people on the ground floor, with an attic divided into 9 rooms.

Fr. Mihai was honored with the Cross of the Holy Hierarch Joseph the Merciful for his coordination and realization of the new parish center.
