Sunday December 15, following Divine Liturgy St. John had a wonderful Christmas Party, nearly 200 parishioners came together as one big family to celebrate and welcome Santa Claus. Fr. Mesrop Ash welcomed everyone and blessed the table. During the lunch Sunday School Students performed Christmas carols accompanied by St. John Sunday School band and received enthusiastic applause from the audience. This was their 3rd official performance lead by Tommy Kesecker, who worked very hard with the musicians to make this event possible. Later, Santa Clause himself arrived children were excited to take pictures with him.

Again we thank the Sunday School faculty and Tommy Kesecker for coordinating the performance and all the volunteers who prepared the luncheon and make this another wonderful event.
