Once again we are assembled for the Clergy Laity Assembly of the Holy Metropolis of New Jersey, and we convene with your new Metropolitan, His Eminence Apostolos.

He was an example of the best of Hellenism and the best of Orthodoxy, and I feel that today’s celebration – falling on the day of his Forty Day Memorial – is an auspicious sign for us all.
