WHEREAS,
The members of the House of Representatives of the 136th General
Assembly of Ohio are pleased to extend special recognition to St.
Mary’s Byzantine Catholic Church on the hallowed occasion of its
One Hundred Twenty-fifth Anniversary; and

WHEREAS,
Since its inception, St. Mary’s Byzantine Catholic Church has
offered its congregation the pathway to a more meaningful life by
illuminating and demonstrating the precepts on which the church was
founded. The spirit of love and Christian fellowship that exists
among the parishioners not only prevails within the church edifice
itself but also extends beyond those sacred walls to touch the lives
of everyone encountered by these devout disciples; and

WHEREAS,
Under the capable leadership of its pastors, both past and present,
St. Mary’s Byzantine Catholic Church has experienced continual
growth and has provided a source of moral guidance and spiritual
motivation for each of its members. Over the years, the church has
enhanced the quality of life within Youngstown and the surrounding
area, and through its generous efforts, it has earned the gratitude
and respect of the many citizens it has so capably served; and

WHEREAS,
An occasion such as this is an important milestone which represents
dedication and commitment. For a century and a quarter, the members
of St. Mary’s Byzantine Catholic Church have kept their faith alive
in the community, and on this special anniversary, the congregation
has accepted the challenge of carrying its beliefs into the future;
therefore be it

RESOLVED,
That we, the members of the House of Representatives of the 136th
General Assembly of Ohio, in adopting this Resolution, congratulate
St. Mary’s Byzantine Catholic Church on its One Hundred
Twenty‑fifth Anniversary and pay tribute to all those joining
in the celebration of this joyous event; and be it further

RESOLVED,
That the Clerk of the House of Representatives transmit a duly
authenticated copy of this Resolution to St. Mary’s Byzantine
Catholic Church.
