A WORD FROM OUR SAVIOUR LUTHERAN ABOUT THEIR STREAMING SERVICE

Welcome to Everything Croton, a collection of all things Croton--our history, our homes, our issues, our businesses, our schools, our houses of worship--in short, EVERYTHING CROTON.



This last year, we moved streaming the service from Facebook to YouTube with the hope of reaching more people. Two things happened though. We first learned that setting up our Mevo camera to work with YouTube is more difficult and we must manually move videos to be public. In addition, our average weekly viewership went down dramatically from 20-30 to 5-10. Talking with the council, my recommendation is to switch back to Facebook and then upload a copy to YouTube. We will announce this change before we make it. Starting to think about Holy Week – Our Saviour Lutheran Church

HAPPIER DAYS, FATHER BRENNAN, UNITED FOR THE TROOPS 2012

It took quite a bit of work to find this one----a resident asked about the late Father Brennan's engagement with  a veterans group at a former parish.  It was called UNITED FOR THE TROOPS apparently. For those who would like to contribute, you can find more info at UNITED FOR THE TROOPS - Mahopac Volunteer Fire Department

ICYMI---TREATS FOR TROOPS PLUS...

A reader remembered the late Father Brennan being involved in some sort of initiative that sent parcels to our troops serving overseas but can't recall the details.  Can we help? Given the number of Croton residents with family serving currently, they'd like to "do something for these brave souls".

Response You may mean TREATS FOR TROOPS, an initiative that Father Brennan was affiliated with at a previous parish he served with in Mahopac. You can find the website and additional details at Treat the Troops | Nonprofit Baked Goods for Deployed Soldiers

ALSO something called UNITED FOR THE TROOPS OUT OF MAHOPAC UNITED FOR THE TROOPS - Mahopac Volunteer Fire Department

We also have residents with family serving in the IDF; for those who would like to donate there: EverythingCroton: FRIENDS OF THE IDF
