Dear Faithful of St. Demetrios,
 
Glory to God!
 
O Wednesday, Nov. 7th, we took another significant advancement in our building plans with the approval of our site plan by the Perth Amboy Planning Committee.
 
Lead by our Vice Chair Kenneth J. Doukas, along with our lawyers from the Greenbaum firm, our wonderful engineer Sean Delaney and talented architect Dave Minno, we received approval by a vote of 5-1.
 
We thank Ken Doukas, members of Philotimo Board, St. Demetrios members and of course the Planning Board officials.
 
We now move on to have our President Marina Corodemus working with the various State of New Jersey agencies for approval.
 
Keep praying for our efforts advancing our cause all in His Name.

Choir Appreciation Ceremony


Father George conducted a ceremony to honor our St. Demetrios Church Choir on Sunday, October 28th. Each choir member was presented with a Certificate of Appreciation and gift to demonstrate our gratitude for their service every Sunday, under the direction of Irene Pakis. They add a deeper spiritual meaning to our Divine Liturgy through their melodious voices and hymns. May they all continue to serve our Lord through their talents and commitment to our church for many years to come.
