Consecration of the start of work on the new Church in Makri Alexandroupolistranslated

On Thursday, November 12, 2026, our Reverend Metropolitan Mr. Anthimos consecrated the under construction Holy Church of Makri for the start of the work. Work is currently at the stage of constructing the side walls of the building.

Our Pastor emphasized the importance of creating a Holy Church in a settlement that is constantly increasing its population, especially during the summer months. He was flanked by priests of the Metropolis and the vicar of the parish of Agia Anastasia Makris, Father Iordanis Mourbetidis, while the Mayor of Alexandroupoli, Mr. Ioannis Zamboukis, the ecclesiastical commissioners and residents of the settlement attended. The new Church will celebrate the memory of the Holy Five New Martyrs and the great Despotic feast of the Ascension of Christ the Saviour. As clarified once again, the Parish does not change and remains in perpetuity of Saint Anastasia of Pharmacolytria.

Our Metropolitan urged the faithful of the local Church "to pray for the success of the work of erecting this new church of our Province".
