The St. Stepanos Women’s Guild hosted its annual Christmas Bake Sale on Dec.16-17, 2017 as our community welcomed the holiday seasons.  We would like to start by thanking Rev. Fr. Daniel Karadjian and Yeretsgin Mariam Karadjian for their outstanding leadership and support.

On December 16 Members of the St. Stepanos Women’s Guild were busy baking a lot of delicacies for our Christmas Bake Sale. The kitchen was filled with laughter and hard workers.
