Round Table
On Saturday May 30th,
James Russ and Leah Yoch
were crowned in the Holy
Mystery of Matrimony. Their
immediate family, despite
the liturgical restrictions of
the pandemic, braved the
trip from Colorado and Vir-
ginia to be present while
dozens more family and
friends observed via Live
Streaming.
Special thanks to our cantors who sang the service, to our altar servers who
assisted, to Hilda Marie who helped decorate the hall, and to Deacon Joseph Kush-
ner and his wife Patricia who helped in the sacramental preparation of James and
Leah.
Parish welcomes new addition — Rafaella Parven William and Teresa Parven
happily present to the world
their newest daughter:
Rafaella, born Friday, June 5.
Rafaella will be the young-
est of four girls. Mother and
daughter—and Dad—are
doing just fine.
