DRESS FOR SUCCESS PROJECT: St. Anna's Philoptochos and Daughters of Penelope are joining forces to gather women's professional attire for donation to Dress for Success, a non-profit organization that provides clothing for low-income women to help support their job search and interview process. The clothing must be clean, gently used, and ready for wear. A box marked Philoptochos/Daughters of Penelope will be located in the entry of the small hall through October 21 to place your items. If you have any questions or need details, please e-mail Linda Belba at ljbelba@yahoo.com.

PICTURES, PICTURES, PICTURES: Although Presvytera Magdalene's shower is now a very pleasant memory, Presvytera Stephanie is in the process of creating the "Memory Book" of the shower. Please send your photos to Presvytera Stephanie at spantic@icloud.com by Sunday, October 21, 2018.
On behalf of St. Anna's Philoptochos and Daughters of Penelope, a big thank-you to all who came to the shower, brought the scrumptious food and desserts, and helped in whatever way was needed. The event could not have taken place without the help and love shown by our St. Nicholas family. THANK YOU, THANK YOU, THANK YOU!!
