Some of our Sunday School students showcase their handmade Valentine cards created in class prior to the PTO Valentine’s party where they were given sweet treats and gifts with a lot of love! The PTO party was offered to our students in love and appreciation for their wonderful Christmas pageant performance which was delayed twice due to inclement weather.
Fr. George will be offering a two-part Lenten lecture series called Orthodoxy 101. Come and learn about our faith: Who we are and what do we believe? Who we are and how do we worship? A great opportunity for all to learn about what it means to be Orthodox Christians.
The tradition continues! Enjoy this Spirit of Lent Choral Concert promotional video. Concert to be held April 7th, 2017 at St. Demetrios Greek Orthodox Church.
