Archbishop of America cites twin commemoration of AHEPA Sunday, Pontian Genocide remembrance

In his Homily on the Sunday of the Samaritan Woman, the Archbishop of America, His Eminence Elpidophoros, referred to two important commemorations on Sunday, citing the annual AHEPA Sunday and the Pontian Genocide remembrance.
As His Eminence stated, both of these observances call to mind that we “…are a community with a past, and a community with a future. The past must not be forgotten, and how we handle the future is now more important than ever.”

The Archbishop also commented on the reopening of Greek Orthodox cathedrals across America, stressing that “…We, who are Christians and whose chief love is for our God and for our neighbor, are called to practice wisdom and patience, as we begin to open for public worship again.”

The Homily was read out at the Sts. Constantine & Helen Greek Orthodox Church in West Nyack, New York.
