Message from Xanthi Panteleimonos on the success of the students in the Panhellenic Gamestranslated

The Reverend Metropolitan of Xanthi and Peritherio, Mr. Panteleimon, sent his message about the success of the students in the nationwide exams, expressing his joy for the children's performance. The message in detail:

my dear children,

From the Media, the teachers, the parents, but also from you yourselves, I learned about your success and your admission to Higher Education.

My joy is great and it is similar to your parents, who have fought hard for you until today. Their efforts were justified. They did not go to waste, neither their advice, nor the provision of conditions for your good living and training. I share in their joy, I say "well done" to them for their sacrifices and I wish them a long life, so that they can be happy and proud of you.

However, I also send you a thousand "well done", because you studied systematically, you realized your debt to yourself, to your family and to our society, you surpassed yourself and today you are enjoying your success. I wish with all the strength of my soul that the joy of your success has permanence. I hope that the All-Good God enlightens you...
