Vicki also coordinated the creation of the AGAPE ministries, which she is still actively involved in. As we know, AGAPE does outreach for a multitude of parishioners & visitors, from welcoming newcomers, faithful hands and knitting baby blankets for 40-day Blessings, assisting at Baptisms, Weddings, Memorials, Funerals, Environmental Stewardship, Grief Support and also orchestrates the wonderful coffee hour each week for all parishioners to enjoy.
While offering her time to the Church she also runs the family construction business, Kappa Construction, with her husband and children. Vicki’s family, friends and Godchildren look up to her and respect her for her selflessness and grace, and her deep roots in the Greek Orthodox religion, faith and traditions.
Vicki always has put God in the forefront of her life and continues serving Him faithfully,
Axia!
