On Wednesday, December 17, a luncheon was held in Chernay Fellowship Hall to honor the dedicated pierogi workers.  A catered lunch was served with new England Clam chowder, Salad, Filled Pasta Shells, Shrimp Scampi, Baked Mushrooms and small roasted crab cakes. Beautiful cakes made by Jean were dessert. After a blessing by Fr. Nikolai, everyone enjoyed the lunch.  

The pierogi project makes donations to:  cleaning of vestments, maintenance repairs, purchase of new kitchen equipment, St. Tikhon’s Century Association, and Northampton Children’s Bureau, to mention a few.  Pierogi making continues to be a valuable church project and resource that aids the church and benefits others in our community.

May God grant many blessed, healthy years to all our workers, and to all who support the pierogi project.  We pray that St. Euphrosini, the patron saint of cooks, will continue to guide our hands as we peel, cut, roll, pinch, boil, pack and sell our pierogis.
