The Neapolitan Barnabas in the Holy Transfiguration Monastery of Sotiros in Hortiatistranslated

On Thursday, August 6, 2026, the Reverend Metropolitan of Neapolis and Stavroupolis, Mr. Barnabas, officiated at the Holy Transfiguration Monastery of Sotiros, which "oversees" the city of Thessaloniki from Mount Hortiatis, flanked by clerics of the Metropolis, while "from early morning, they flooded the Monastery" pro-monks and pro-God believers.

Protopresbyter Father Nikolaos Ludovikos clearly developed his original paternal discourse, in which he developed the connection between the Divine Incarnation and the Transfiguration. "The Transfiguration paves the way for us to conquer deification and likeness to Him," the speaker emphasized, among others.

A group of 30 young people participated in the Solemn Divine Liturgy, under the responsibility of Fr. Gregory from the Holy Metropolis of Boston. The group, within the framework of the "Cosmos - Hellenic Learning" Program, is currently being hosted by the Holy Metropolis of Neapolis and Stavroupolis, while at the same time 30 children from the Local Church are at the Camp of the Holy Metropolis of Boston enjoying the hospitality of the Reverend Mr. Methodios.
