Sunday, June 8, 2025, was a truly special day at St. Demetrios as we celebrated Holy Pentecost and honored the many blessings in our parish.
We witnessed the Affirmation of Office for our Philoptochos Board, recognized our Sunday School and Greek School students and graduates, honored our dedicated teachers, and presented year-end awards.
The day was bittersweet as we also celebrated Father Philotheos during his final service with us. On behalf of the community, Parish Council President, George Kane, presented him with a plaque as a reminder of the love and memories from his first parish, St. Demetrios Perth Amboy.
During the luncheon that followed, the children of St. Demetrios offered their own touching presentation, sharing words of love and thanks that moved us all.
Father Philotheos, you will be deeply missed. We wish you the very best in your next chapter and may God bless you always.
Thank you to all who joined us for this meaningful day.
