Family KItchen
Family Kitchen
Volunteers from Saint Peter & Paul Church gathered at the Family Kitchen in Johnstown to prepare and serve a meal to the area’s hungry. Youth and adults gathered at the kitchen to clean, prepare tables, cook, serve, wash dishes, and clean up following the meal. The group of about twenty-one served 157 meals for lunch on Saturday, January 26. The effort is part of a charity called Saturday’s Kitchen, which is made up of area churches who have combined resources and volunteers to have the Family Kitchen open on Saturdays as well as during the week.

NEW VESTMENTS BLESSED
Before the Divine Liturgy on December 31, 2006 a new set of Festive Gold Priestly Vestments were blessed. These Vestments were first used by Father David at the Nativity of our Lord Feast Day services. The new Vestments were donated to our church by Mr. & Mrs. Tom & Tammy Pongrac in honor of and for the health of the Rabic and Pongrac families. The parish sincerely thanks Tammy & Tom for their generous gift and we ask blessings upon them and their entire families.
