CATHEDRAL BELLS The Cathedral Bells are in need of repair. For safety reasons the bells are not able to be rung. The cost of making the needed replacement and repairs is $25,000. It would be wonderful to have our bells repaired before our Centennial Celebration. As in the past, I am presenting a challenge to all of our parishioners to consider a donation for these repairs. Considering that we have about 100 households, I ask you to consider a donation of $200 per household. Some may not be able to meet this challenge and I ask you to do the best you can. Some may be able to do better than the challenge and I thank you in advance for doing so. Together, we can bring the sound of the bells back to St. Theodosius Cathedral. As of August 14, 2011 we have raised $ 13,979.00! Thank you! God bless you all, Fr. John St. Theodosius Orthodox Cathedral Ambo - Page 4

Contact Frank Tkacz 216-351-1011 NEXT PARISH COUNCIL MEETING Thursday, AUGUST 31, 6:00 PM at Ridge Manor OPPORTUNITIES FOR EVANGELIZATION During the month of September there will be multiple opportunities to evangelize in direct and indirect ways. In addition to our celebration of the 100th Anniversary of the construction of the Temple on the weekend of September 10 & 11, there are three other opportunities: 1. On Saturday, September 10th., Sparx City Hop will be taking place which coincides with our activities for the 100th Anniversary Celebration. All over the City of Cleveland there will be trolleys providing transportation to visitors to see the City and to stop-off at multiple locations throughout the day. One of the stops will be our Cathedral, and since you will already be there, all that is needed is to be aware that we may have visitors stopping in all day. These will, of course, be in addition to those visitors we are already anticipating. The only difference may be that these visitors will not necessarily be aware of our celebration. Nevertheless we want to show them our hospitality and welcome them into our midst. 2. The following weekend is the 13th Annual Tremont Arts Festival which will be held at Lincoln Park . It takes place on Saturday, September 17th (from 11am to 6 pm) and Sunday, September 18th (from noon to 5 pm). We are aware that many of you will be volunteering for the previous-weeks 100th Anniversary Celebration. Again, nevertheless, we want to extend the opportunity for you to volunteer for this year’s event. If you are able to provide even one hour of your time, it will be most welcome. Please contact me or Joyce to volunteer. 3. Finally, on Sunday, September 18th., there will be an Inter-Orthodox Golf Outing which overlaps the second day of the Tremont Arts Festival. Please mark your calendars and consider each of these opportunities to engage in evangelization, hospitality and fellowship. St. Theodosius Orthodox Cathedral Ambo - Page 5
