Greek Orthodox Church of the Annunciation 1


Was constructed in 1947 as the fulfillment of a dream of the small, industrious Greek community which had immigrated to Montgomery over the previous 70 years, struggling to make their way in a strange new land. This effort, delayed by years of depression and war, was finally secured thru the scrimping, bake sales, penny jars and poker winnings of the earliest 15 families, and their achievement afforded a place for the small Greek community to cling together, support one another, and maintain their faith. The Church still provides the glue for the founding families, as well as for the dozens who joined them here after War II ended. Help them celebrate their faith every Labor Day at the granddaddy of all BBQs and bake sales!
