11.19 Annual Thanksgiving Potluck Dinner

Leave your work at home and join us for a Thanksgiving Potluck Dinner as we celebrate the many blessings we share with many of those who have blessed us!

We will be having the dinner at a function room at Mina Kaddis’ apartment (151 Tremont Street, Boston, MA) on Thursday November 19th (one week before Thanksgiving).

Please come and bring your favorite dish! I know that some of you are very talented in the kitchen and wouldn’t mind sharing a delectable recipe with us. :) Pick something from the list below and post on the wall what you will bring, or you can call Nancy (248-982-7750) or Maggie (781-367-9224); but more importantly, just remember to bring yourselves!

Mina’s apartment is accessible by public Transportation. Take the Green Line to either Boylston or Park Street. 151 Tremont Street is between both of those stops. For those driving there is a parking lot close by as well as street parking (meters). When you enter the building let them know you are there for St. Mark’s Thanksgiving Dinner.

We hope to see you all there!

10.24 Divine Liturgy in Boston

In addition to the weekly services and by the grace of God, we are excited to inform you that we will be praying the Divine Liturgy in the heart of Boston for the first time this year! The Divine Liturgy will be from 8-11am, which will be followed by a spiritual word by our beloved Fr. Samuel. We hope that you’ll be able to join us!  The service will be held at the Paulist Center & Chapel on 5 Park Street in Boston

Please feel free to let us know if you have any questions and definitely pass along the word to everyone.

D I R E C T I O N S
SUBWAY
Park Street T stop (on the Green and Red Line) is the nearest station, which will bring you directly to the location of the church.

BUS
Buses 43, 55, 191, 192, 193, or 277 will also bring you right to the steps of the chapel.

CAR
Taking the subway/bus is highly encouraged, but for those of you driving into Boston, Parking is limited i.e. meter parking and there is also a nearby parking garage. The entrance into the Boston Commons Garage is on Charles Street. For more detail on the rates, please visit:http://www.mccahome.com/bcg_rat.html. Since it is a weekend, I believe we can get validation for the parking there for approximately half the weekend rate.

In His Love,
BYF of St. Mark’s Coptic Orthodox Church
