• ~Fr.’s First Liturgy in our new Church~

  I received this very nice e-mail from a parishioner in our new church. Thank you Angie

  My Dear Presvytera Lisa,
  

  As a member of the Church Board, I can not tell you
  how overwhelmed our parishioners were with Father
  C. first liturgy at Annunciation Church this morning.
  He brought a breath of fresh air to our congregation and the comments
  at the coffee hour were beyond anything we had expected. After we had
  interviewed Father I knew in my heart of hearts he was “the one”
  to bring this wonderful community together as one.
  The only item I forgot was to take pictures to send so you could
  publish them on your blog–Sorry!!

  Again, thank you so much for making such a sacrifice in moving your
  home and family here to NY.  I can promise you will not regret it.
  I look forward to meeting you in the very near future. In the meantime
  we all send our love and good wishes to you and your children.
  
  Angie P.

  +Edited to add, another nice note+

  Dear Presvetera Lisa,

  Due to a conflict, I was unable to attend Father’s first Sunday service in our church, but I heard it was wonderful.  I am on the Parish Council and have had the pleasure of hearing his concerns for our community through his very thorough questioning of all aspects of our church community and it’s workings.   I believe I speak for many in saying we are grateful for his leadership and we all look forward to working with him.

  A note of thank you to you and your lovely family for your willingness to move to NY.  I hope you will love it as much as we do and we look forward to meeting all of you soon.

  God Bless,

  Katie
