His Eminence Archbishop Elpidophoros of America offered the Affirmation of Office and cut the Vasilopita for the Board of Trustees of St. Michael’s Home on January 23, 2023. He thanked His Grace Bishop Andonios of Phasiane for his years of service to the Home and to its elderly residents and also recognized the dedicated work of the Board, saying, “Love is the motivation behind all of your efforts. And I congratulate you wholeheartedly for your steadfast dedication and unwavering devotion to the Home. I pray that this Vasilopita will be a harbinger of a greater success and the kind of progress for the Home that enhances the lives of its residents. For the residents – our yiayiades and papoudes – are the reason Saint Michael’s exists in the first place. (full text here: https://www.goarch.org/.../remarks-archbishop...
