Our St. Demetrios sunday school presented a wonderful Christmas Pageant on Sunday, December 17th. The PTO hosted our annual Christmas party afterward with a delicious lunch, children’s crafts and a visit from Santa. Thank you to all who worked so hard to keep these special traditions going.

The Seniors along with Fr. George and Presbytera Maureen celebrated Christmas with a wonderful lunch in our hall.

Our GOYA is spreading holiday cheer! They recently performed Greek dancing at the local Perth Amboy nursing home, Alameda Center for Rehabilitation and Healthcare. A big thank you to their Greek dance instructors, George and Despina Markos.

Thank you to all of the St. Demetrios parishioners for the generous donations we have received for the children of Albania through our Outreach Ministry. With all of your help we have made it possible for them to have a very happy Christmas! The boxes are on their way to Albania!

Our GOYA has been busy lately! The Monday after Thanksgiving, they joined St. John the Baptist Carpatho-Russian Orthodox church and volunteered at the local soup kitchen. On Friday, Dec. 1st, they volunteered with Bridges at St. Barbara Greek Orthodox Church in Toms River to make sandwiches for the homeless.

The Archadian Chorale, lead by Musical and Artistic Director Marina Alexander, performed a musical tribute to Great Martyr Demetrios on Friday, October 27th in celebration of our 100th Anniversary. See the Program.
