Thank You!!
THANK YOU ALL VERY MUCH
I cannot thank all our Parish Family enough for the
exceptional celebrations we had all during the Holy
Week and Easter this year.
I am truly grateful to all who helped me with the Altar
decorations each day of Holy Week. My thanks goes to
our faithful Deacons, and Subdeacons, and all our
Altar Servers for attending the rehearsals and all the
Liturgies. I say thank you very much to our music
Directors and all our Choir for a wonderful chant and
accompaniment these days. My special thanks to all
the special guests who joined with our choir this year.
I thank all our Parish Family of all the ages for
attending Church on these special days. My thanks to
all benefactors for the offerings you made to the
various collections including for the Holy Land, for
Easter Sunday, for the Easter Flowers and all the
personal offerings to me and all our parish clergy.
Thank you, thank you, thank you one and all for these
memorable Holy Days. What a blessing you are.

PLEDGE DRIVE PART III – 2015 –
rd
It is time to introduce the 3 and last Pledge Drive for
the benefit of our many repair projects at our Parish
facility.
Please remember that in 2013 we announced our long
list of major repairs needed at that time for which we
would take up to 3 years to collect the needed pledges
and be able to accomplish all our repair projects.
Please remember that our repair list was long and so
much funds were needed we realized we could not do
this all in just one year’s time. As you know the pledge
response has been very good and a lot has been
accomplished. At this time we want to present the
following repairs that are much needed for this time.
We need to paint all the outside of our buildings and
then replace the 11 arched windows in front of the
rectory. A camera security system would be very
helpful as well .
A parish mailing with all this information will be
coming to you this week. Please look over this Pledge
Drive, pray, then make your best pledge donation. All
our parish family is asked to participate to the best you
are able.
