He was accompanied by Archpriest Fr. Vazken Atmajian. In attendance were School benefactors Mr. and Mrs. Ralph and Savey Tufenkian School, members of the St. Mary’s Church Board of Trustees and School Board, teachers, and parents.

The Prelate first visited classrooms where students enthusiastically greeted him in the spirit of Thanksgiving and together they offered prayers. The celebration continued with a luncheon in the hall where Kindergarten students presented songs dedicated to Thanksgiving and to the School’s upcoming 45th anniversary. Of special note was an anthem the students sang dedicated to the 45th anniversary. The cutting of the anniversary cake followed by the Prelate, benefactors, and administration.

The Prelate delivered his message expressing spiritual contentment for the festive holiday atmosphere, and commended and blessed the School family and the young students.
