Children’s Change for Change
How do we raise kind, caring, charity-minded Orthodox youth? By actively involving them in the process! With Children's Change for Change, even the youngest members of our community can take part in charitable works. Following the conclusion of the service on the FIRST SUNDAY OF EVERY MONTH, we ask one family from our AHJ community to hold collection baskets and encourage our parishioners to donate their pocket change in support of Orthodox mission work around the globe. If you're interested in involving your family in this meaningful ministry, contact Leslie Dombalis at ldombalis@gmail.com or Zoe Pusic at zpusic@yahoo.com.

We are seeking teachers to help us this year. Please contact Zoe Pusic at holytrinityraleighgreekschool@gmail.com if you are interested in sharing your love of the beautiful Greek language.

What Does it Mean to Be Green?
Did you know that His All Holiness Patriarch Bartholomew is known as the Green Patriarch? But what does that actually mean? Come and discover the answer with our Christians Caring for Creation ministry as we screen The Green Patriarch on Friday, July 21 in the fellowship hall. The film explores His Eminence's vision for us as Orthodox Christians and our responsibility as stewards of the Earth. We will be hosting a pot-luck dinner at 6:30 pm, with the film to start at 7pm, so bring a dish to share and come learn with us!
