The procession with the relics and icon looked beautiful in the evening light at Arkalochori. I was especially glad to see the Metropolitan mention the forty-day memorial for Fr. Konstantinos Pervolarakis — may his memory be eternal. Our parish remembers him fondly from the times he visited.

Yes, the Lithuanian with the 40-day remembrance of Father Constantine was influential. In Arkalochori everything looks calm and beautiful at sunset, and I remembered how he used to pray with us in the past years. May God rest his soul.

It was good to see that the Bishop also mentioned the forty-day commemoration of Father Konstantinos Perbolarakis right after Vespers. In Arkalochori, the sunset always makes the liturgy especially beautiful, and we from our parish still remember how he sang at the services. Eternal memory to him.

Yes, Camille, the forty-year-old was really calm and impressive. I remember our father Constantine always standing at the church door after prayers and distributing the blessed bread. May God have mercy on him and make his remembrance always with us.

Yes, Fadi, he was actually standing at the door and distributing bread with his calm smile. I remember one time I took a piece from him as I was leaving Mass. I felt as if he was personally blessing each one of us. May God rest his soul.
