Birthday Sunday News By: Elaine Kritselis
|
|
|

Here’s news regarding this year’s birthday cakes. The lady making the original cakes could no longer supply them. Hearing this,
Dr. Metodi Pogoncheff
told me that one of his patients, a retired baker, might consider making them for the church. He approached her and she agreed. She delivers the cake to
Dr. Pogoncheff’s
dental office and he brings it to church on Birthday Sundays. Many thanks
Metodi
.
Big thanks also are extended to
Evelyn Lazaroff
and
Donna Demos
who can be seen standing behind the cake slicing away pieces for parishioners to enjoy.
Evelyn
and
Donna
have mastered the art of cake slicing. They make it look effortless.
Below are photos from the combination June and July birthdays marked on
June 11
and the August and September birthdays observed last
Sunday, Sept. 17
. The first two pictures are the June/July Birthdays and the second two pictures are the Aug/Sept Birthdays.
