St. Spyridon Greek Orthodox Church held their annual Greek Food Festival, at the Hellenic Center on 119 St. Spyridon Lane in Monessen, on Saturday August 17 and Sunday August 18.

St. Spyridon volunteers serving food in the Hellenic Center are (from L-R): Angela Baker, Gabriella Baker, Steve Marinos, and Helen Guzinsky.

The event featured nightly entertainment including a live Greek Band, “Panigiri,” and Greek performances by the St. Spyridon Dance Troop. The delicious Greek food is always a popular attraction and included gyros, an outdoor grill, Greek desserts, and succulent Greek dinners.
“We are very thankful for all the good people that come out every year and support our church, for the local parishioners who have been working hard since February to prepare our wonderful food, and for the kids who have worked very hard practicing the Greek dances, ” said Steve Marinos, Co-chair for the festival and also president of the parish council.
