June, 2009 Dear Parishioners and Friends, Christ is in our midst! Early this year, the parish put on a charity pasta luncheon for those people in Gaza who were suffering because of the Hamas/Israeli conflict. The function raised nearly $9,900.00 and the proceeds were channeled to the International Orthodox Christian Charities, through the initiative of Debra George. This highly respected body was the only one that the Israeli Government would allow, to give help those people at the time. Further, because of its accreditation with the US Federal Government, they obtained approximately another $750,000.00 in grants for the cause. On July 17-19th, we will be having our Annual Cultural Festival. We ask you to join us for this wonderful event. For those of you who do support it, you play a significant part in allowing our Church to flourish and function. Apart from all the normal ecclesiastical responsibilities, it is also able to take initiatives like the above, which enabled the wider community of Syracuse to help those suffering in another part of the world. As always, there will be a great atmosphere with tasty food, exotic music and dancing for everyone to enjoy a good time. You will also get the opportunity to tour our Church, with an explanation of the Orthodox Liturgical setting and its teachings. We look forward to seeing you there! Fr. Terence Baz, pastor  |
