Our family has been part of this parish for a while now, and it's honestly one of the most vibrant,…read morefaith-filled Catholic communities we've experienced. The parish is growing, thriving, and full of young families who are genuinely trying to live out their faith. This is reflected in the packed pews, the gaggle of children everywhere, and the real sense that people are invested in building a strong Catholic community together. Most everyone here is incredibly welcoming. New families are greeted warmly, kids are included, and there's a strong sense that the parish belongs to everyone--from newborns to grandparents. Like any large parish, there are occasional moments where someone might be bothered by the developmentally appropriate noise or movement that naturally comes with lots of small children. In fact, this past weekend there was an older woman who seemed visibly offended by the mere existence of the littlest parishioners at Mass and even refused to let a father back into the pew during the Our Father after he had briefly stepped out with his child. She actually was so annoyed she stormed out in the middle of Mass. Thankfully, moments like that are the exception and not the norm, and they certainly don't reflect the spirit of the parish as a whole. One of the reasons the parish is flourishing is the incredible work being done in faith formation. Our Director of Religious Education, Lauren Walsh, does an absolutely remarkable job. She essentially manages religious education and youth ministry for hundreds of children, coordinating programs, volunteers, and events that help young people grow in their faith. The amount of dedication and organization required for that is enormous, and the results speak for themselves. Fr. Keating also deserves a lot of credit. His homilies are thoughtful, challenging, and rooted in authentic Catholic teaching. He doesn't just offer feel-good reflections--he encourages the faithful to actually know their faith, think about it, and live it out in daily life. Deacon Steve and Deacon Wilfried are also wonderful - they are such a great resource and support for our community. With the growth of the parish came new office staff as well - Leigh and Anna keep us all in the loop and the parish logistics running smoothly. Patricia is one of the OG office ladies and we definitely could not do it without her! If you're looking for a lively parish filled with families, kids, and people who are actively practicing their faith, you'll likely feel right at home here. But if you prefer a morgue-type silence or quiet retirement-home atmosphere where children are rarely seen or heard... this probably isn't the parish for you.

I initially visited upon invitation to one of the bible study classes and decided to become a member after experiencing a deeper relationship with God while listening to rich scripture- and tradition-based homilies, attending Spirit-filled Masses and Reconciliation experiences abd phenomenal bible study classes, and eventually serving in ministry roles and parish celebrations. The priest, deacons, and parishioners have greatly encouraged and enriched my spiritual life. Highly recommend.

It's been a decade since anyone has reviewed the St. Demetrios Greek Orthodox Church Festival and I…read moream more than a little surprised. You feel the dedication of this 100 family church and their volunteer effort because this 50th Anniversary Festival is really all about the food. There are no imported dance troupes or an extensive vendor presence here. There is authentic handmade and homemade food. When you pull onto 21st street on the North Side of Fort Worth from Jacksboro Highway, you can actually smell the cooking food. Herbs and meat wafting across their parking lot as you move on to find a place to park. North Side High School allows the Church to use their lot and the Church has a shuttle van. Thank goodness. What a hilly area! Built on a bluff, there's a beautiful view to the west behind the grills that are active with souvlaki, shrimp and pita and the rotisseries of lamb and beef gyro meat. It's only $1 admission and then the decision is what to eat. The festival offers a lunch and dinner sit down plate with Greek salad, green beans, Greek-style rice, spanakopita, and home-baked roll. Children's plates are two chicken drumsticks, green beans, Greek-style rice, and home-baked roll. Lunch entrees are Athenian Chicken or Vegetable Moussaka with the above sides for $13. At dinner, for $16, it's Lamb Leg slices, Chicken or Moussaka. Kids plates $8. We opted for the food booths. Payment is by $1 or $5 token. The food is a bargain and by the size of the crowds coming and going and filling their auditorium, the word is out. We had tender skewers of grilled marinated pork tenderloin souvlaki first. $6 for the pita sandwich and $4 for a skewer. We went back for Dolmas. $5 for 3 fat, tasty, beef and rice, tender grape leaf wrapped Dolmas. Savory! An enormous Greek Salad with meaty Greek olives was just $5. Gyros with supple buttery grilled pita bread were $8 and absolutely delicious. I saw the portions for spanakopita, moussaka and pastitsio and they were hefty for $4, $8 and $7 respectively. There was a small Taverna counter; other sodas, drinks and water were $2. The huge array of handmade desserts and breads were sold inside. Assortments to go were also available. This small church had also frozen all your Greek favorites, in large and small quantities, to take home with you. The moussaka went fast. It was Sold Out, in both sizes, by 3 p.m. on Saturday. Unhappy face! I'll know to take a lightweight cooler and buy it first thing next time. Yes, there will be a next time. Modestly priced and enthusiastically worked by church members, I thought the food festival was terrific. Their young people have Folk Dance teams who are fun loving - they've obviously been practicing - and dance on the auditorium stage. I didn't get to see the smaller children. It can be elbow to elbow inside; but the dining room empties out after the dancing stops for awhile and it was a great place to eat. There are also some tables and chairs outside. I think remembering that this is a fundraiser is key here. I sat in their sanctuary and could see the fruits of their labors. It's really a rewarding and enjoyable experience and they pour themselves into it and you can reap the rewards! It's Good food! Go! On through Sunday 11A - 3P.

In looking back at this review, I see his point, so I'm going to attempt to write a better review. The primary reason I like this church so much is that this is the church we were married in (10/2001). Priests have come and gone and it's undergone a few changes since then (new pews, new landscaping, an organ was added), but it is essentially the same church we were married in. But even if I did not have such a deep emotional connection to this church, I would still prefer it. It is a nice medium-sized church with a wonderful mix of parishioners. It's not dominated by any particular ethnic group, in fact it's quite diverse. There's no pretentiousness. There are no displays of excessiveness. No matter which mass we go to, there is always a friendly face in the crowd. Regardless of your age or your ethnicity, you'll feel welcome here. St. John is very diversified and I like that. PS. The St. John the Apostle Catholic School (pre-K through the eighth grade) is the only Nationally Recognized Blue Ribbon School in Tarrant County!
