SAILING into the FUTURE

 

     

 

 

 On Sunday, May 20, 2012, we will hold our semi-annual General Assembly immediately after the Divine Liturgy.  At this gathering, we will have the opportunity to hear reports on the progress of all the undertakings of our parish and to discuss the needs of our community.  Most importantly, we will be discussing details regarding our Grecian Festival which will take place on June 13-17, 2012.

Needless to say, your presence at this meeting is very important for it gives you the opportunity to learn about the various endeavors of the community. It also affords you the chance to share with those present, your thoughts and opinions on the future of Zoodohos Peghe.  We look forward to seeing you at the assembly. If you have not paid your membership, please make sure you do so prior to the day of the Assembly. According to the Archdiocese Uniform Parish Regulations, only paid members of the Church can make motions and vote.

June 13-17, 2012

During the Z.P. Grecian Festival, our people, whether they are doctors or tailors, teachers or housekeepers, take the time to serve our guests in this event.

As you all know, the success of our Festival depends largely on the reputation of our wonderful cooks. In order to be sure of consistency in the quality and appearance of our dishes and pastries, all the food is prepared in our own kitchens. Obviously we need a great deal of help – both male and female.

Work has already begun on our festival. The Committees are ironing the details. Please watch for notices, especially volunteer recruitment forms. Please get these in early. Time is needed to plan worksheets.

If you would like to be part of this effort, please let us know as soon as possible. Experience is not necessary. Either fill out the volunteer forms or call the office (718) 823-2030. And take it from the “experienced” festival workers, we have fun when we are working together. We hope you will join us. Remember, we need YOU!

 

BECOME A FESTIVAL SPONSOR !

You can help with the expenses of the festival by sponsoring the 5-day event.              

The cost of the sponsorship is $100.00.

Signs bearing the logo and name of each business and sponsor is displayed around the festival grounds. This is a perfect way to show your love for your parish and at the same time advertise your business. Please call our parish office for details. 

 

DID YOU BUY  YOUR RAFFLE TICKETS?

 

  

1ST PRIZE: $10,000.00- CASH 

2ND PRIZE: $5.000.00-CASH 

3RD PRIZE: $2,000.00-CASH

&

MANY MORE ELECTRONIC  PRIZES

Each year the grand finale of the festival is the raffling of many great prizes.. Someone is going to walk away very happy that evening. It could be you!

Each raffle costs only $20.00 a piece!

Not very expensive if one is to consider the number and type of prizes that are raffled and the limited number of tickets printed.

Your parish is asking for your help. We are asking that you purchase some raffles and to sell some to your neighbors, business associates and contacts and to your friends.

The success of this festival depends on  everyone’s help and personal efforts.

PLEASE  DO YOUR SHARE!
