As we enter Spring this year 2021, we are slowly leaving behind the historic pandemic and slowly reopening our society and our beloved church, St. Spyridon Greek Orthodox Church, to all of you and your families. What a blessing! Father Andrew has spoken to us about the meaning of Pascha many times and, as I understand it, it is a time of renewal- for us, spiritually, as we sharpen our understanding of what it means to be an Orthodox Christian. Each week we are reminded of the importance of being a “Eucharistic Community”: we gather around the holy altar to praise God and we do it together. We, the Church, may not have heard from you in a while, but you are not forgotten nor are you to be le behind. We count each of you and consider each of you uniquely important in the growth of the Body of Christ, in our beloved St. Spyridon Greek Orthodox Church, and thus we are reaching out to you to remind you to not forget us. We look forward to seeing you soon and when we do it will be a time for celebration and renewal! us, take a moment to re ect on the importance of the Church and its impact on your life. And make your contribution to stewardship so we the church can continue to serve you and your family (and the parish) in your momentous need or celebration! John Kalas, Chairperson Fr.
