Avak (Senior Citizens) Group

The Avak Group meets every Monday from 9:30 to 3:00 in the Church Hall.  We have approximately 20 to 30 parishioners in attendance to play a variety of card games, board games or just join in good conversation and socialization. 

We try to plan monthly luncheon gatherings and honor a member whose birthday falls within that month with a cake.  We recently honored our dear Andy Shadbegian who turned a young "99" and still going strong--driving each day and participating in the card games. 

As an added activity a group of our parishioners took a trip to Boston to see Charles Aznavor in concert.  We are currently looking into planning other trips of interest to our group. 

Our parish nurse, Sona Hargrove, has presented a variety of health related programs of interest--a video/presentation on Dental Health was given by Virginia Deranian.  We also had professionals in attendance explaining various health alert programs available to anyone who has a need.  Sona is in the process of setting up an exercise program and Vision related illnesses/resources available for our information. 

We encourage anyone interested in joining our group to come down on Mondays--if you have a specific project or hobby you would like to share with us--we WELCOME YOU.  The following committee members are always available for ideas and your input.  Please contact the Parish office at 508-756-2931 for the phone number of the following members for further information.
