Coming Up: 100th Anniversary in Manville

Saints Peter and Paul Orthodox Church, of Manville, NJ, will be celebrating its 100th anniversary over the weekend of October 3-4, 2015. In anticipation of the Anniversary, the children celebrated a birthday party for their parish on Sunday, May 3, 2015. They participated in many events such as a kickball game, photo booth, balloon toss, chalk drawings, and other fun activities. The children were given the opportunity to celebrate their parish’s anniversary in a way that was fun for them.

Because most guests bring a gift to a birthday party, the children were asked to bring a gift to donate to St. Andrew’s Camp of Jewell, NY. The children brought various gifts including sports balls, bubbles, games, chalk, and more. The gifts will be delivered to St. Andrew’s Camp in time for the 2015 summer camp season.

The children of Saints Peter and Paul had a fabulous time at the birthday party, and are looking forward to the upcoming Anniversary. As a parish, we thank you for your continued support and prayers as we get closer to our 100th anniversary.
