St. John the Baptist provides Christmas Dinner for Veterans and enjoys Christmas Concert - 12/19/2015

On Saturday, December 19, 2015, the church school of St. John the Baptist Orthodox Church School continued their yearly tradition of providing a home-cooked Christmas dinner to the local Veteran’s Center. The Veterans enjoyed a hot home made ham dinner with all the fixings, and delicious desserts. The Church School teachers, students and parents spent quality time with their neighbors, and before leaving, handed out presents to the Veterans.
After the dinner, the church school and the faithful of St. John’s were treated to the Choir’s annual Christmas concert, held after Saturday Vespers. The choir treated those gathered to traditional Christmas songs and liturgical hymns.
