Food For Thought 01: Great Lent – February 25, 2023
Thanks to all who attended our first Food for Thought on Saturday, Feb 25. It was a wonderful evening of discussion about Great Lent led by Fr. Ben. Here is the audio presentation.
In anticipation of our next session on Saturday, March 25, Fr. Ben asked that we prepare by reading the Didache. Here is the link for you or you can purchase the Didache at the bookstore for only $7.
Stay tuned for the schedule for that day as it will include Liturgy for the Feast of the Annunciation, our annual Fish Feast to support Zoe House crisis pregnancy center, followed by our discussion in the church. We will plan to have activities for the kids in the hall while the adults are in class.
Special thanks to Fr. Ben for offering this informative program to all parish members, catechumens, and friends who are curious about the Faith.

This year the International Food Fest is planned for Saturday, November 12th from 10:00 a.m. until 2:00 p.m. in the church fellowship hall. We have many volunteers but could still use more. There are lots of things to do including shopping, washing pans, pots, bowls, and utensils used in preparation which is vital and important parts of the process and crucial to the event’s success.
We will be making and selling many favorites again like Spanakopita, Stuffed Cabbage, Kibbee, Baklava, Stuffed Grape Leaves, Spaghetti Sauce, and Meatballs, Koulourakia, Biscotti, Pizzelles, and many other items including baked goods.
