Dear Brothers and Sisters in Christ,

I would like to start building up a collection of books for a youth book mobile in the preschool/kinergarten classroom. Most of the books that the kids have available are old and deteriorating.  I have formed a list of books put out by Orthodox publications that would be acceptable as donations for our classroom.  If you would like to donate one of the following books please contact me so that I can cross it off of the book donation list.  Book donations can be left in the preschool/kindergarten classroom or left in the church office.  Thank you.

Sincerely,

Megan Morgan

Dear Brothers and Sisters in Christ,

Our next big potluck event will be on March 14th 2010.  The St. Patrick of Ireland potluck will be similar to the St. Nicholas festival that we had last year but on a much smaller scale.  Please contact Megan Morgan if you would like to volunteer for craft tables, face painting, preparation or cleanup.

Dear Church School Parents,

I recently added our church to an online rewards program called "Learn2Earn".

“Learn2Earn.com is a unique program that rewards students for learning outside of the classroom. By logging on to Learn2Earn.com and answering core curriculum quizzes, students will work toward earning rewards for themselves and for their school!

If you have a child that is in the age range kindergarten through eighth grade you can register them to earn reward points to go towards rewards, raffles and contests for our Sunday school program. 

To register your child please goes to…. 

http://learn2earn.com/

Click "Not Registered" in the top right corner

Fill out "Student Info"

Click the box to agree to terms of service

Click Register

When searching for our school type in "Greek Orthodox Church", you should then be able to find "Sts. Markella and Demetrios Greek Orthodox Church" along with our PO Box address.

Thank you !

 

Sincerely,

Megan Morgan
