Fellowship Hour
Kali Panagia! To celebrate this great feast of the Dormition of the Theotokos, we are having a little Panegyri in the Church Hall: roasted pork loin, rice, salad, and baklava sundaes for dessert. You are also welcome to join in some dancing! Thank you to Presbytera and Anesti for preparing the meal.
There are still many empty Sundays for Fellowship Hour! Please sign up! Get together with friends and family! Fellowship Hour is an important part of our liturgical experience, like the Agape Meal of the early Christians.
Donate an Icon
You have certainly seen the beautiful icon of the Trinity at the candle stand in the Narthex, written by Casey Newman. We would like to commission her to write a parallel icon for the other candle stand. This icon will be a Deisis, with Christ in the center, flanked by the Theotokos and St. John the Baptist. The donator of the icon will be able to add two saints of his/her own choosing to complete the icon. The donation for the icon is $850 and can be made in honor or in memory of a loved one. If you are interested in donating this icon, please see Fr. Constantine.
Calling all Flee Market Items
The Outreach Ministries will be hosting a Flee Market on Saturday, August 28 from 10 to 1. Do you have any Flee Market items at home that you are looking to get rid of? Please bring them to Church by Thursday, August 26. Also, if you can help out the day of the Flee Market, please see Presbytera.
Can You Help Children for School?
The Outreach Ministries is challenging our Parish Family to come to the aid of International Orthodox Christian Ministries to bring school supplies to needy children. If you would like to help, take a cloth bag and list of needed items from the Church Hall. Fill the bag and bring it back to the Church by Sunday, August 29. God bless you for your generosity! We will have a blessing for our bags that Sunday, so be sure to bring them up to the church! Also, if any of our school children would like to have their own backpacks blessed, please bring them as well and put them on the table in the front.
Do You Need to Occupy Children?
If you are looking something to keep your children occupied during the Liturgy, please check out our Children's Basket at the Pangari. You will find Bible stories, washable crayons and colored pencils, and coloring pages. Please help yourself and return the items at the end of Liturgy.

Put This Event on your Calendar
God willing, we will finally be having our Taverna Night, which this year will celebrate the 90th anniversary of our beloved Parish Family. This wonderful event will take place on Saturday, October 2 (please note the change of date!) from 6-10:30 pm. Dinner will feature lots of delicious mezedakia, followed by a dessert buffet. Dancing will be to the tunes of Dilina, Jim Speros and Chuck Koutsos. Tickets are $35 a piece. Make sure to get your tickets as soon as they are on sale!
We also need a lot of help for the event, for cooking, for set up, and for other tasks. If you are interested in helping and making the event a success, please see Presbytera!
Please Remember the Poor
There are Blessing Bags available to take and keep in your car for the times that you see someone begging at an intersection.
We also need items for the Blessing Bags (there are more bags waiting to be taken and given away!): deodorant, toothpaste, shampoo/conditioner, lip balm; hand sanitizer, and granola bars.
May God bless your generosity!
On-Line Giving
Because of the strange circumstances we find ourselves living through, our Parish, although blessed by God in many ways, suffers from a particular shortage of income during the summer months. Your consistent offering of your Stewardship each month will be an enormous help to get us through this summer slump. The easiest and most consistent way to do this is by having your Stewardship given automatically each month. Please go to our website (www.holytrinitynh.org); in the upper right hand corner (of each page!) you will find the link to make your monthly contribution. You can also use this link for other contributions to the parish, such as candles and trays, especially if you prefer not to handle cash. Thank you for your generosity and making sure we are able to serve you throughout the whole year to the glory of God!
