KOINONIA
GREEK ORTHODOX ARCHDIOCESE OF AMERICA METROPOLIS OF NEW JERSEYMessage from Fr. Michael L. Pastrikos, Protopresbyter
Bearing the Fruit in God’s Holy Kingdom
Dear Church members and friends,We each have different motivations and capaci-ties for giving, and every gift and pledge is gratefully received. Our Stewardship committee’s one hope is that your support for our ministries comes from a profound sense of gratitude and joy for all you re-ceive through your relationship with God and the "Stewards" of our Church. Here at St. Nicholas we are blessed. We share a strong faith with each other. We celebrate the joyful events in each other’s lives and comfort each other in times of trial and sorrow. We are an open Church embracing everyone that joins our family circle. We also open our hearts and our hospitality to everyone who comes and worships with us. Our Church has ministered faithfully for more than 60 years here in Baltimore, not because members have given over and above the means, or that they give year after year out of duty, obligation, guilt or fear. No, our Church is still here; still strong and vibrant because generations of Stewards have counted themselves blessed and have therefore sup-ported its mission with generous gifts of gratitude and joy.
If our survival counted on only by the Steward-ship Pledges that come in every year, our church would have been closed a long time ago. To give you some financial statistics, our church budget has sur-passed the $600,000 dollar mark. Our annual Stew-ardship pledges that come in every year, ranges be-tween $200,000 to $220,000 every year. That doesn’t even cover 1/3 of the budget. In my eyes for a large community of over 980 families the amount of do-nations that come into the church through the Stew-ardship pledges is a very poor example of how much we truly love and support our church. Just imagine if everyone in the parish gave faithfully every year to their church, we would be able to accomplish the many tasks that are presented to us every year. I have stated many times in previous newsletters, that if our young adults, and our young married couples, if only they could understand the needs of the church and started to volunteer their Time, Talent, and Treasure, to their parish, we would be a community filled with spiritual joy and happiness. We need our young people to step up to the plate and support their parish. This is something that we have not
ac-complished here at St. Nicholas, but we will never give up, and we will continue as a parish to educate our young people for the future generations.
We can’t rely every year on Festivals, Dances, and Raffles to pull us through our financial responsi-bilities. We are blessed to have great facilities in our community. We have our Church, our Schools, the Plateia, our Large and Small Hall, our extended properties, and our future Educational building. To operate these facilities, we need $45,000 a month to keep up with all the bills and stay afloat. We need our parishioners to understand the enormous financial responsibilities that we have and for them to help support this cause. We send out 4 times a year Stew-ardship Pledge cards to all the members of our par-ish. Instead of getting a positive response, the re-sponse is always negative. Out of 980 families our average response is between 550 to 600 pledges ev-ery year. God has blessed us here at St. Nicholas. We have kept our Traditions, Language, Culture, and our Heritage close to our hearts. Our church is always open to take care of the needs of our parishioners. There is so much traffic in our church every day that sometimes I feel like I’m in an airport. In worship, fellowship, School activities, Youth activities, study and faith, sharing groups, service opportunities and more, we are growing and we will continue to grow and prosper as an extended family. With your gener-ous gift we will continue to build the web of caring for our community.
In conclusion, I would like to inform everyone that on Sunday, November 22, the Stewardship Com-mittee will be hosting the Annual Stewardship Sun-day Program. Fr. Michael will conduct a special prayer service for those who send in their Steward-ship offering. Over the next few weeks you’ll be hearing from the Stewardship committee, some spe-cial deeply personal messages that will be given in church after the Divine Liturgy. Please come to church with your family and use that time to reflect on the many ways you can count yourself blessed and then give gratefully, generously and joyfully in sup-port of our ministries for 2016.
May God bless all of you, and may you have a wonderful Thanksgiving Day celebration with your family and friends.

Dear Parishioners,
This month, I was really struggling to write something meaningful. I was feeling exhausted and worn out even though we have been accomplishing so much at the church. My work at St. Nicholas was becoming, well like, work. My passion for the job was with-ering. I decided to check out the Greek Orthodox Archdiocese of America's website at www.goarch for inspiration. Wow, I never expected to find the se-ries called “Be the Bee” by Steven Christoforou, Director of Youth and Young Adult Ministries. Christoforou explains that all Christians struggle
with their faith and devotion to Christ and that was when I realized why I was feeling worn out. I was so busy tending to the needs of the church, that I neglected to tend to my personal relationship with God. Instead of putting my faith in myself to get the work done, I should have put my faith in God. The media, family and friends all say the same thing, “work smarter, work harder.” Rarely does anyone say, “Give your problems to God,” “Trust in God,” or “Let's pray together.” Watching the “Be the Bee” series reminded me, that God is always there to renew my spirit, renew my strength, renew my faith in him.
Since November is Stewardship month, I will be spending my time renewing and strengthening my personal relationship with God. Every month, I ask that all of our parishioners consider giving of their time, talent and treasure. If you cannot give any of these things, then pray for us and give us your blessing for through God, we can accomplish anything.
Happy Thanksgiving!!
In Christ, Demos Anastasiades, Parish Council President

PHILOPTOCHOS NEWS
October 24th was National Make a Difference Day. National Philoptochos had asked chapters to participate in a project that would include the children of the community so to make them aware of phil-anthropic missions. Our Chapter along with the children of our com-munity collected items for the local family crisis center. Thank you to all those who donated and helped make a difference to those less fortunate.
Our annual Bull & Oyster Roast was enjoyed by all. Thank you to those who attended and donated. All of the proceeds went to benefit the Plateia.
Thank you to Liberatore’s Ristorante at White Marsh and to ev-eryone who attended the “Fall Ladies Night Out.” The proceeds from the evenings event went to benefit the food account.
On Sunday, November 1st we will honor our Patron Saints Kosmas and Damianos with an Artoclasia and coffee hour. Join us on Monday, November 2nd at 6:00 p.m. for the general meeting fol-lowed by dinner to honor the Saints. We will also be giving out the pins to those who have contributed to the Saint Nicholas Shrine. If you have made a donation thank you. To our members who have not, no donation is to small!
Once again from November 1st - 15th, we will be collecting canned and boxed food for those less fortunate. All items may be placed in the Philoptochos room.
Donations:
Fotisia Anastasi in memory of Phillip J. Arnas Haraklia and John Stakias in memory of
George Rossis and Kalliopi Kornias May their Memory be eternal! Anonymous for Saint Basils Academy
With Thanksgiving approaching, we would like to thank all our contributors and supporters. You are truly a blessing for without you, the philanthropic missions of Philoptochos would not be possible. Wishing everyone a very Blessed Thanksgiving.
