Fr Matthew and Presvytera Catherine Penney Goodbye Lunch

On August 19th, we said farewell to Fr Matthew Penney and Presvytera Catherine with a big lunch hosted by both the community council and Philoptohos. We also had former Priest Fr. Chrysostomos Achilleos and his family visiting! It was a lovely event, attended by many, with heartwarming speeches. Father Matthew and Presvytera Catherine will be missed, and their contributions to our community will be felt for years to come. We wish them well in their future endeavors.
