1st Anniversary of the Consecration

On Sunday 10th November 2013 we celebrated the 1st Anniversary of our new Church’s Consecration.



It was a very nice opportunity for many people to gather together and offer a special prayer for our new Church and for our Community as a whole.



The Episcopal Divine Liturgy was presided over by the Metropolitan Bishop George of Paphos (Church of Cyprus). Fr Melchisedek (from the Monastery of Essex), Fr. Aemilianos (from the Holy Mountain), as well as the Parish Priest Fr. Anastasios assisted the Bishop.



At the end of the Holy Service the President of our Community Mr. Pantelis Demosthenous had offered, on behalf of the Church and Community Council, commemorative plagues to various people who have contributed greatly towards our Church and Community by both personal service and financial offerings. These are:



-         Mr. Yiannakis Yianna, President of the Community, between 1979-2005 and Trustee of the Community.
-         Mr. Miltiades Papadakis, Secretary of the Community, between 1975-1997and Trustee of the Community.
-         Mr. George Stylianou, Treasurer of the Community, between 1989-1995 and Trustee of the Community.
-         Mrs. Eva Christou, President of “St. Agatha” Ladies Sisterhood, between 1992-2011.
