Last Trustees' Meeting for the Summer..............
On Wednesday, June 16, we held our last trustees' meeting for the summer months. An appreciation dinner preceded the meeting at which we invited all the spouses of our trustees and also all our past trustees and their spouses. Michael and Linda Bzik, who always do a wonderful job, arranged the delicious meal.
On the agenda at the meeting that followed was a discussion of an up-coming project for church growth. We will enlist the able direction of Fr. Ivanoff, from the OCA offices in Syosset, to help us through this venture. Everyone will hear more about this project as we progress since everyone will need to help us toward our goal of church growth.
