Festival of the Holy Monastery of Agios Ioannou Theologus Aetochoritranslated

On Saturday, September 26, 2026, our Church celebrated the transmigration of the Holy Apostle and Evangelist John the Theologian. In our Metropolis, the Holy Monastery of Agios in Aetochori celebrated.

On Friday afternoon and until late at midnight, a Holy Vigil was held with Solemn Vespers, baking, Orthro and Divine Liturgy officiated by our Reverend Metropolitan Mr. Anthimos. The participation of the faithful was great, in an overwhelming and festive atmosphere and the cantors performed the tropes of the holiday exceptionally well.

On the day of the celebration of the festival, the Orthros and the Solemn Divine Liturgy were performed and then the litany with the icon of the Saint took place in the courtyard area, around the monastery's catholicon.
