Coffee Hour Invitation:
We are very blessed at St. Barbara’s to have six (now) dedicated teams of families and individuals who donate their time and talents to insure a delicious selection of food and drinks for Sunday Coffee Hours. If you would like to be part of such an effort, please see Matushka Christine, Lynn Powers, Fr. Basil or any member of a current team. They will pass the information along. Thank you in advance for your prayerful consideration.
Greeters Needed:
For the next two months we will have need of further greeters to list on the Sunday schedule. If you are able to help with this important ministry, please see Fr. Basil. Two months should suffice, but we would like to invite people to continue, if possible, even after this interim period.
Essentially, we need friendly individuals to arrive by 9:30 am, prepared to greet people at the front doors of the Church and to provide basic information for visitors.
Choir Notes and Congratulations:
We want to congratulate Jamie Gonzalez and Jamy Nguyen for being selected once again to participate in the UTA Premiere A Capella Performance Choir. Many Blessed Years!
