Page 17 Fraternity- Testvériség Branch 62 - East Chicago, Indiana Join Hands Day On Saturday, May 1, 2004, a small group from our Branch headed out early in the morning to the Hungarian Baptist Church in Chicago for our Join Hands Day project. Unfortunately, however, due to inclement weather we were unable to accomplish as much as we had anticipated. Our enthusiasm for Join Hands Day was not dampened, and we will return again next year . A Várvölgyi Sportegyesület vezetősége nevében köszönetét mondok Bicsérdi Imre, Bicsérdi Imréné, Bicsérdi Norbert, Bicsérdi Tamás, Bicsérdi Gyula, Bicsérdi Gyuláné, Bicsérdi András, Bicsérdi Judit, Héder Ferencz, Héder Ferenczné, Héder Zoltán és Héder Adriennek a községnek és a focicsapatnak nyújtott munkájukért, melyben többek között elősegítették a várvölgyi sportpálya környékének rendbetételét, parkosítását. Várvölgyi SE Elnöke Miskolc, Hungary This is the third year in a row that our young members from Miskolc, Hungary, participated in Join Hands Day. The triplets Csaba, Laci and Norbert Zsebik; their cousin, Peter Zsebik; and their friend, Marton Tires, went to St. Vincent de Paul, a daycare home for the homeless, to clean up the premises and do all the necessary repair work. We are very pleased that these young people look forward to Join Hands Day each year, and this is what they have to say: “This project gives us a great deal of satisfaction because we feel that humanity is being helped with our volunteer efforts and the love in our hearts.” Below is also a letter of appreciation we received from the President of St. Vincent de Paul Society. A Páli Szent Vince Társaság, Magyarországi Nemzeti Tanácsa Szeretetszolgálat Vezetősége nevében, hálás köszönetét mondok Zsebik Csaba, Zsebik László, Zsebik Norbert, Zsebik Péter és Tires Mártonnak, önzetlen és lelkiismeretes munkájukért. Mint minden évben , idén is elvégezték a szeretetszolgálat udvarának rendbe tételét. Ezzel szebbé és barátságosabbá varázsolták a szeretetszolgálat környezetét, hogy az odajáró szegények és rászorulók még jobban érezzék magukat. A Jó Isten áldását kérjük, hogy bőségesen jutalmazza meg életüket áldozatos munkájukért. Bihari Ferencné Elnök Várvölgy, Hungary Six young members of our Branch and their friends from Várvölgy, a small village near Lake Balaton, organized their first Join Hands Day project ever. Their plan was to improve a soccer field, which was badly neglected due to lack of funds. Since soccer is a very popular sport in Hungary, the villagers were miserable to see their youth play on such a bad field. Thanks to the hard work of our volunteers, the soccer field was beautifully restored. It was a unique and wonderful experience for the villagers to see volunteerism in action. Following is a letter of appreciation from the President of the Sports Club in Várvölgy: Joe Kovács, Director Tel: 219-756-3102 Branch 80 - Perth Amboy, New Jersey On Memorial Day Weekend Sunday, May 30, a group of over 50 people gathered at Calvary Cemetery to remember the veterans of the Magyar Reformed Church of Perth Amboy, New Jersey. We could not a Veteran Memorial Service at Calvary Cemetery in Perth Amboy, N.J. with the Rev. Dr. Attila Kocsis, Pastor have asked for better day with the bright sunshine and perfect weather. The Memorial Service was conducted by the Rev. Dr. Attila Kocsis. Following the invocation, Bible reading, and prayer, Priscilla Hunyady explained that we were there to pay tribute to the veterans of World War II. This was being done in conjunction with the dedication of the World War II Monument in Washington, DC. The Hope- lawn VFW Post #1352 also participated in the service. Commander Steven Cserr read several readings pertaining to what it means to be a soldier and veteran. The Post Chaplain and several members of the Post placed flowers at the memorial monument. The names of the 110 deceased members of the Perth Amboy congregation who served in World War II were read by Arlene C. Sabo and Priscilla Hunyady. Ten of these brave soldiers died in the War. We will always keep their memories dear to our hearts. Following this, the Post Commander and the President of the Women’s AuxHopelawn, N.J. VFW Memorial Post members
