For the last three years, the Theotokos Greek Orthodox Church, at the corner of  West Friendly Avenue and Westridge, has been holding Trunk or Treat,  where children of all walks of life are invited to celebrate Halloween. From 4-6pm yesterday, candy was distributed- with visitors and church members alike making every effort to social distance. Father Presbyter Loulakis was on site overseeing the event. If you look closely, he is the person in the long black vestment between the red and black SUVs.

This view from the Westridge side of the building showcases the simple, yet impressive, architecture of the building. Walter Blue was the architect. The building was completed in 1975. Geometric shapes, especially the square and the half-circle, are evident inside as well as outside the church. It is nice to see people outside on a sunny day and to hear the joyful voices of children making memories with their families.The Trunk-or-Treat memories felt more community oriented, than commercial.

Happy Sunday, and, if you are a member of Theotokos Greek Orthodox Church, enjoy Divine Liturgy this morning.
