Monastery of Agios Kendeas Avgoros: Volunteers are wanted for the painting of the historic monasterytranslated

August 5, 2026 · 1 min read

The help of volunteers in order to paint the monastery of Agios Kendeas in Avgorou is requested by the Dean, Gerontissa Chrysostomi, as the festival is approaching and the cost required to entrust the work to a workshop is too great for the forces of the brotherhood.  Gerontissa Chrysostomi, of the historic Monastery of Agios Kendeas, addresses every person of good will and notes in the love of all:

Good morning everyone!

May Saint Kendeas think of you!

I am writing to inform you that as most of you know, our monastery is old and you are undertaking a radical renovation. But until then God has...

The monastery really does need a lot of hands for that painting job before the panegyri. I’ll pass the number 99115646 around our parish here; maybe someone heading to Cyprus this summer can pitch in with a brush. Praying the Saint covers you all.

Yeah, the place is pretty old and that paint job before the panegyri is no small thing. Good on you for spreading the number around your parish. If anyone from Melbourne is heading to Cyprus, tell them to pack old clothes – it gets messy fast.
