Father Royer elevated to Archpriest.......
Father Royer was recently elevated to the rank of Archpriest. Our prayers are with him that he may enjoy good health and strength to continue serving God and ministering to our parish. May God grant him many years!
Father Royer was away on Sunday May 15 and in his place our visiting pastor was Father Anthony Falsarella from Garrison, New York. He is pictured above with past board of trustees President Anna Mae Beckmann and Helen Kurnewitz behind the counter. Father was welcomed by everyone at the coffee hour following Divine Liturgy.

The Women’s Club is planning a bus trip to Atlantic City on June 5. Be sure to contact Peggy Kovalycsik early to reserve your seat and join us for an enjoyable day together.
Church Painting......
Thankfully, the major part of the painting of our church was completed by Pascha. The contractor also cleaned the Iconastas when the painting was finished. Unfortunately, the cross at the top of the Iconastas was broken by the painters but they are in the process of repairing it and will install it shortly. It is agreed by all who attend services that Bennington, our painting contractor, has done a wonderful job and everyone is pleased with the results.
