Please let me know if you will be coming so Santa can make sure he has enough presents for all the children attending. We also ask you to bring a dessert to pass and a non-perishable food item for those people and animals in need. Adults without children are welcome to attend also. We are inviting members of Branch 27 Toledo to join us this year. We are not that far apart. Perhaps it's time to get to know each other.

Branch 28 Youngstown, OH by Kathy Novak It's so hard to believe the holidays are quickly approaching. And with that thought in mind, remember to mark your calendar for Saturday, Dec. 3, the date for the Branch 28 annual family Christmas party. It will be held at 1:30 p.m. at Our Lady of Hungary's social center. The invitations will be in the mail soon. Also on that day, the holiday/scholarship raffle will be held. Applause, applause to all who helped make 2011's Fraternal-Fest such a wonderful experience. Endre Csornán once again chaired a great event with fun, food and friends being shared in abundance. Branch 28 chartered a bus to travel to the wonderful all-day fest. We were lucky enough to have a full bus this year. In spite of some minor difficulties, our group spent the day and enjoyed every moment of it. All are looking forward to 2012's fest. Get well wishes to all those not up to par, especially John Morey who recently experienced a fall. Congratulations to the Rev. Joseph Rudjak, pastor of the merged parishes of St. Stephen of Hungary, Our Lady of Hungary and Sts. Peter and Paul. Father Rudjak was the recipient of the Visionary Award 18 0 November 2011 0 William Penn Life
