The cross in the midst of our church

The cross stands in the midst of the church in the middle of the lenten season not merely to remind men of Christ's redemption and to keep before them the goal of their efforts, but also to be venerated as that reality by which man must live to be saved. "He who does not take up his cross and follow me is not worthy of me" (Mt.10:38). For in the Cross of Christ Crucified lies both "the power of God and the wisdom of God" for those being saved (1 Cor.1:24).

Annual meeting goals

Parishioners through discussions and affirmations came to the following conclusions:

1. We commit to support the renovation project now and in the future by Orthodox Christian usage.

2. We will support the work of the Church locally and beyond.

3. We will make certain that there is no “ministry of one” at St. Gregory’s.

4. We will practice sound stewardship by supporting the budget approved by the congregation at this meeting.

"Many Years!"...
"To all who – and they are many and strong –
have provided this community
with a wonderous ‘upper room!’

Pascha 2007

We can meet now in extended fellowship! We can host our sister communities! Conferences can be held! Coffee Hours will be absolutely enhanced. The place is pleasing to the eye and heart because so many contributed to its completion.

To the select few who led so patiently and with concern for the well-being of St. Gregory’s as a community of believers who choose to use this place to actually further the Kingdom in gatherings that are good and edifying! To them for providing such a stepping stone into the future we owe a huge thank you. We offer it here and, please God, in the times to come when we use that which has been given to us! Again, Many Years!

To those who cleaned and decorated last Saturday in between worship and more worship!"... Many Years.
