And stop by my display on the North American Thebaid and Orthodox Christian Monasticism!
Join us for our 8th Annual Food and Culture Fair and experience new and updated attractions plus perennial favorites, including:
- Special presentations on church architecture and iconography,
- Our ever-popular choir concert,
- Church tours throughout the day,
- Full range of delicious ethnic foods and treats,
- Shopping at the open-air, multi-ethnic bakery and marketplace,
- Gift & book store, special displays, and convenient seating in our air conditioned hall to enjoy your treats, relax and visit.
I will once again have my display for The North American Thebaid, with large, display prints from the book and my continuous running digital slide show on a large flatscreen TV.
This year, my display will be newly expanded to include special books and info on Orthodox monasticism in America. We at St. Symeon feel blessed to have had two parishioners become monastics over the last several years, and a third currently testing the life and discerning his calling.
We would love to have you join us for this favorite annual event!
