LindenStGarage

Thanks to the efforts of Anatol and Alex Siemenczuk and with limited Men's Club assistance, the Linden St. garage was given a much-needed makeover. They donated all the time and materials to the project, and left us with a structure that should stand another 50 years! Following are the various 'before and after' pictures, as a reminder of what it used to look like covered with vines.

We celebrated a glorious event on October 9th, when our Rector's oldest daughter Meredith shared vows with Simeon Morbey, who hails from from St. Mary's Cathedral in Minneapolis Minnesota. The day was a magical celebration. We wish them both a lifetime of blessings and happiness.
