Parish Community In Birmingham Sets A Shining Example

 

To the Editor:

Through your newspaper, I would like to congratulate Father Paul Costopoulos and the entire community of the Holy Trinity Cathedral in Birmingham, Alabama for their decision to donate the entirety of the proceeds from their church’s annual Greek festival to Hurricane Katrina relief efforts.

I was born and raised in Birmingham and married in that church in 1954, and all of my relatives live there. I know how hard that community works to make their festival a success. This tremendous act of kindness to help with the recovery of the victims is a truly wonderful thing, and we should all learn from it. This is what it’s all about: compassion and love for our fellow man no matter what race, color or creed.

Respectfully submitted,

Maria G. Eugenis
Des Plaines, Illinois
