November 9, 2026 · 1 min read

The memory of Agios Nektarios, Bishop of Pentapolis the Miracle Worker, was celebrated in the Holy Metropolis of Alexandroupolis with particular splendor and the participation of a multitude of pious Christians.

On the eve of the holiday, on the afternoon of Sunday, November 8, 2026, a solemn High Priestly Vespers was held at the Holy Church of Agios Nektarios in Alexandroupolis, presided over by our Reverend Metropolitan, Mr. Antimos. A crowd of believers flooded the celebrating church and had the opportunity to venerate the holy icon of the Saint, as well as the relics of the Saint, which are kept as a precious spiritual treasure in the eponymous Holy Church. In his short sermon, our Metropolitan emphasized that on the occasion of the feast of Saint Nektarios, our local Church honors the great Saint of patience and forgiveness. His life and example teach us the value of justice, love and injustice towards our fellow human beings and drawing strength from his grace, we are called to walk the path of truth and solidarity, always guided by his spiritual legacy (LISTEN HERE)
