September 17, 2015 – Vespers Service

After being scattered this summer as far as Istanbul, we gathered for the first Vespers of the fifth year of Bethany House – how time flies!  The Bethany House residents wanted to have a cookout to celebrate Joe’s belated birthday and prepared ingredients for three kinds of kebabs, as well as baba ganoush (with eggplant from the Community Garden), pita bread, potato salad, tzatziki, and brownies for dessert.  We were joined by Pastor Karen, David and Linda (who brought yummy zucchini salad and three bean salad), and Amelia, the newest resident of Lawrence Road House.  We did a little gardening (less than planned) and cooking (more than planned) and enjoyed being together after busy summers.
