BOY SCOUTS project to renovate our old church hall Hello all, my name is Kosta Demopoulos and I am a candidate for Eagle Scout, the highest ranking in the Boy Scouts of America. For achievement of this rank I have to raise funds and lead an eagle project to completion. For my project I have chosen to renovate our old church hall, which includes painting the walls and replacing the ceiling tiles. Such an ambitious project comes at a high cost; I have estimated this project will cost over $3,700. I call out to you my fellow parishioners to please help donate any sum of money towards this project to help me complete it and beautify our church even more. Thank you so much and God Bless.

Any checks can be made payable to
St. Andrew

INTERFAITH FURNISHING PROGRAM On Saturday, July 11, St. Andrew is scheduled to participate in the Interfaith Furnishing program. This organization receives donated furniture that it distributes directly to needy families in the area. All work is done by volunteers obtained through local churches. We need at least four volunteers to commit 3 to 4 hours on Saturday, July 11 to help pick-up and deliver furniture. If you have a pickup truck, that would be especially helpful. It is an excellent opportunity for a father and teenage son to spend the day together contributing back to the community.
To volunteer see Peter Petrou after church or contact him at PPetrou@cuyler.com phone 973-263-8980
