Wheeling’s Greek Festival Keeps Getting Better

-

The parishioners of St. John the Divine Greek Orthodox Church welcome you to their 24th Annual Grecian Food Festival beginning Wednesday thru Saturday, July 23 through July 26 from 11:00 AM to 9:00 PM. Indoor Dining 11:00 AM to 8:00 PM.

“Come and connect with our heritage and traditions which are centuries old, yet timeless in substance. Our Sanctuary Tours will inspire you, the Orthodox Christian Bookstore will educate you, the food and drink will entice you and the hospitality will overwhelm you.” said Gus Kayafas, Festival Director.

“FAITH, FOOD AND FUN!”

The authentic food, electric atmosphere and the contagious hospitality makes this one festival you do not want to miss this summer.   There is something for everyone to enjoy and the parishioners cannot wait to share their faith, food and fun with you. The festive outdoor setting allows you to enjoy our Famous Gyro Sandwiches, Greek Tavern Fries, Wings of Ikaros or Chicken Kabob.  A flaming aged-cheese called Saganaki will be served daily after 4 pm. The youth of our community prepare golden fried honey puffs, lemonade and baklava sundaes by day and by night. The Agape Dancers will perform daily the exciting and colorful dances from various regions of Greece to live authentic Greek music provided by an Ohio Valley favorite, “The Greek Company”.

However, our greatest desire is to share the beauty of our Orthodox Christian Faith with every single visitor.  When you visit the food festival, please consider learning more about the Orthodox Christian Church.
