20 Feb Parish Assembly Passes Development Plans

An overwhelming majority of the Special Parish Assembly approves the Design & Development Plans of the Building Committee.

After nearly three decades of struggle, the holy and God-fearing faithful of the Annunciation Greek Orthodox Church assembled together on Holy Pentecost to pledge their support to the building ambitions of our community.

The Design & Development Plans, the fruit of the coordinated efforts of the Executive Building Committee together with hundreds of hours of contributed architectural and engineering expertise, much of which has been donated by the invaluable drafting talent within our community, will be finally sent to the Metropolis for a seal of approval.

Initially, the plans were presented to the general Building Committee by the Executive Building Committee for review and discussion.

Following the Committee’s approval, the plans were then put to the Parish Council, who in turn presented them to the body of the Special Parish Assembly by the Parish Council in the form of a resolution.

Of 109 registered votes at Sunday’s ballot, there were 105 in support of the measure, 2 against it, and there were 2 abstentions.

As we await the approval of our local Hierarch, we pray for God’s mercy and the blessing of His Most-Holy Mother as we embark upon this next chapter in our community’s history.
