Last Thursday night Agape Preschool and the SSPP Hope Group partnered on our first ever Movie Night!!! The parents and children all enjoyed watching the Grinch Movie, partaking in dinner, and some holiday fellowship.

Our Church School kids and families went out and bought presents for children and families in need. Each child brought their gift to church and we collected them on the solea. They presented them before the icon of St. Nicholas and then Fr. Rick blessed the gifts.

We had a great team that helped assemble 65 lunches to be distributed in Evanston. Thank you to our team that came out, volunteered, and made a difference!
