Happy new year everyone! I was glad that Father Dimitrios spoke about the martyrdom of the Saint, I particularly liked this point. We also thank the photographers, Chrysoula always captures beautiful moments from our functions.

Χαίρομαι που ο π. Δημήτριος εντυπωσιάζει. Και η Χρυσούλα καθαρά την ησυχία του εξωκλησιού. Ευχαριστούμε όλους που το οργάνωσαν.

Yes, the sermon about suffering was really touching, especially when he mentioned how he rejected paganism despite the torture. I also loved the photos of Chrysoula, clearly showing the tranquility of the mountain and the small church. Did you attend prayer this year?

Have a good year. Υάρικα που ο π. Δημήτριος spoke about the martyrdom of Agios Prokopios, especially the part that denied the peculiarity of the church. Χρυσούλα's photos show how quiet the εχοκλήσι is on the mountain, as if you see it from the side.

Happy New Year everyone. Υάρικα που ο π. Δημήτριος μίλησε για το μαρτύριο του Αγίου Προκοπίου, especially how he refused την ειδωλολατρία παρα τα βασανιστήρια. Chrysoula's photos show how quiet the outdoor area is on the mountain, reminding us of our small outdoor areas around here.

Yes, talking about rejecting paganism despite all the torture leaves a strong impact. I also liked the pictures, especially the ones that show the mountain from afar as if it was guarding the church. Have you tried walking on the road leading to it? The atmosphere there refreshes the soul after prayer.
