So people really walk away, you
Know, with a new understanding. So we do a little bit of everything there. Our thing there is spreading our culture, spreading what we do at the church itself. So we’re going to have Greek tours, you know, throughout the day. We’re going to have Greek wine tasting. We’re going to have obviously
All the Greek food there. Our main thing is we have a word in Greek. It’s called cafe and cafe means enjoying life at every moment. So we try to enjoy life at every moment. Whoever’s with us, we want them to enjoy it too. Great way to enjoy life. Producer says we missed one
