MARK YOUR CALENDARS FOR A SKAFF REUNION!
St. Thomas Antiochian Orthodox Church
of Sioux City, Iowa
Celebrating 100 years
1916 – 2016
100 YEARS AGO our ancestors embarked upon a treacherous journey leaving their homes in Syria, Lebanon and other Mid Eastern countries,
risking all so they might have freedom to worship God in a free America! They bravely endured great tribulations and hardships in their journey so
their families could have a better life in the United States of America. Many found their way to Sioux City and established
St. Thomas Orthodox Church so they could Glorify God and give thanks for his blessings.
As It Is Written, “Remember the days of old, consider the years of many generations” (Deut. 32:7a)
To honor our heritage
St. Thomas Orthodox Church will celebrate our 100th Anniversary during
Labor Day weekend September 2 - 5, 2016.
Fr. Lucas Rice and your Parish Family of St. Thomas Antiochian Orthodox Church of Sioux City, Iowa
cordially invite you to join us in celebrating our Centennial Anniversary
and would be honored by your presence as we give thanks to our Lord and
we remember our past, celebrate the present and look to the future.
Labor Day Weekend Friday September 2, 2016 – Monday September 5, 2016
