Men's Club

Ths SS. Peter and Paul Men's Club was founded in 1976, with its purpose to raise funds to benefit the Church, and to assist in any project upon Church request. The first meeting was held on October 1st, 1976.  Many decades later, meetings continue on the third Thursday of each month at 7:00PM in the Church hall.

Since its inception, the Men's Club has coordinated many social events that have raised tens of thousands in support of various projects within our Church. Most recent projects include a new Cemetery sign, Church Chimes, new sidewalk in front and side of Church, Ice machine, Church doors, 7 acres bathroom refurbishment, partial repaving of the Linden /Whitehead Ave. parking lot, Pascha, Christmas and Festival donations. During the pandemic, the club was blessed to be able to donate $5000.00 to the Church, while our members could not attend. Proceeds from events such as the 25 Week Club, Spaghetti Dinner, Fish Fry, and Atlantic City trips have made a difference to our Church.

The current Board consist of the following members:

Phil Rogozenski - President

Hank Dziemian - Vice President

Jay Pelleriti - Treasurer

Pete Silowka - Recording Secretary

If you are a man 18 years or over, of Orthodox faith, and in good Church standing, please consider joining us in making ideas become realities in our Parish Church. Any board member will gladly assist you!
