Peters Medical Center of the Bronx. Ladies Philoptochos Member Maria Fotiadis, and Ladies Philoptochos President Agathy Gerkis, along with AHEPA Chapter President Harry Fotiadis, presented food cards to Mr. Shawn Kingston, Chief of Development and Civic Engagement, at the Center. The presentation occurred at the end of the liturgy and was presided over by Protopresbyter Fr. Nicholas Anctil and Fr. Demetrios Balidis, of Holy Trinity Church.
