Parish Outreach............
Parish outreach was discussed at a meeting that was held on August 4 in the church hall. Fr. Jonathan Ivanoff addressed a group of parishioners that attended. At that time, a committee was formed that will be referred to as the Church Health Team. The members of this team are: Father Sophrony, Anna Mae Beckmann, Marilyn Stagen, John Kary, and Peter Junda. They will coordinate the effort between Fr. Ivanoff and the parish. It is important for church parishioners to be involved in this project and they may be called on to help during different stages of the endeavor. Fr. Ivanoff is experienced in matters concerning parish outreach, and he will direct our efforts to a successful revitalization of our parish. More pictures of the event are on the Pictures’ Page.
