Branch 34 Pittsburgh, PA by Marguerite McNelis Hope everyone had a blessed Easter. Please take a moment and pray for all our service men and women, especially those in harm's way. The First Hungarian Reformed Church of Pittsburgh had its Annual Council Dinner. The food was delicious, and the company was very enjoyable. Thank you, Judit, for your help and letting us enjoy László. It is good to get together and renew acquaintances. Thank you, church members, for all your hard work in preparing the delicious meal. Thank you so much for your kind words, Rev. Ilona Komjáthy, regarding William Penn Association. WPA is a great fraternal insurance association, and we are very proud of our Hungarian heritage. We continue to support all of our local churches. Birthday wishes go out to all branch members celebrating their birthdays. May you all have many, many more. Our thoughts and prayers are with everyone experiencing health issues. Please remember our deceased members in your prayers. If you have any news you would like to share, please contact Marguerite McNelis at 412-421-6031. Branch 44 Akron, OH by Elizabeth Darago Hello from frosty Akron, Ohio! It's a blustery March 1 as I write this. Looking forward to spring and spring branch activities! We will be packing "Hope Totes" on Saturday, April 14, beginning at 1:00 p.m., which will be donated to the Haven of Rest Ministries in Akron. Your help is needed! Please call Jean and George Naswadi at 330-670-5367 to volunteer and to get the address where we'll be packing 50 bags. Leave a message if you get their answering machine. Someone will call you back. This is a Branch 44 spring community activity and shouldn't take more than an hour or two of your time. Please join us! Each Hope Tote will contain several personal care items, including shampoo, conditioner, body wash, toothpaste, toothbrush, tissues, razor, shaving cream and other items. If you'd like to donate to this project, please let Jean and George know. Each bag will cost the branch about $3 to $4 to fill, and your branch officers have been purchasing items as they can from sales, the internet and dollar stores. It will be a great spring get-together. Our spring food basket was donated to a family of immigrants. We contacted the International Institute and Peace Home for information on who we could assist. As many of our ancestors were immigrants, we thought it was right and proper to give this basket to newcomers to our area. Thanks to our members, one family will enjoy a fantastic Easter and additional meals afterwards. Best wishes to members celebrating birthdays, anniversaries and other happy occasions this month. We extend our condolences to those who have had personal loss or trouble. Students: remember to get your WPFA Scholarship Foundation applications and essays mailed and postmarked by May 31. For your life insurance and annuity needs, call Alan Szabó at 330-482- 9994. Happy Easter to all WPA members and their families. Branch 89 Homestead, PA by Mark S. Maskarinec Lisa S. Toth-Maskarinec Happy Easter to one and all. With the help of Chef János and Endre Csornán, hurka was made once again at The First Hungarian Reformed Church of Homestead.
