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.
Philoptochos prepares Thanksgiving baskets with items collected from very generous parishioners. Thank you to all who participated in this wonderful event.
Over the summer, over 1000 pictures taken by AGAPE AWARD recipient PETER J. CHRISTOPOULOS were reviewed, scanned and selected for viewing on the church’s electronic frame. *(On sale now at the church preloaded for $60.)
The work to scan and edit these pictures was done by PETER J.CHRISTOPOULO’S grandson ALEX BERTUCCI.
Mr. Bertucci further edited a highlighted version of these 1000 photos set to music, played at the Gala 100th Anniversary Luncheon on October 29th and is offered free below here to you for viewing pleasure.
THANK YOU ALEX BERTUCCI from the entire St. Demetrios Community.
