Dear friends,
We are communicating with you in
order to extend our greeting and love from Motherland. At the same time it is
our desire to share with you a great vision of ours which is gradually coming
to life. Since 1985, a beauteous Temple in honor
of the Most Holy Virgin Mary of Mirtidia (Panagia Myrtidiotissa), patron of the
island of Kythera ,
has started being erected in Athens , and more
precisely at the municipality
of Alimos .
In 2011, with the efforts of all
the parishioners, the Kytherians, and the philo-Kytherians, the Most Reverend
Metropolitan Simeon of Nea Smyrni and Alimos together with the Metropolitan Seraphim
of Kythera and Antikythera inaugurated the new overground and beauteous Temple with the
appropriate Ecclesiastical Order and radiance.
Despite the hitherto materialized
works and everyone’s tireless efforts, the Temple still has many shortages and many
things have jet to be fulfilled.
For this reason we turn to the
love and sensitivity of all Kytherians and philo-Kytherians who live abroad,
and especially those in Australia
and the United States of
America , and ask for aid in the titanic work
that is carried out. We ask you to be our fellow brothers-in-arms in our fight
to complete the necessary works that will make the Temple of Our Most Holy
Lady Theotokos of Myrtidia a jewel.
For whoever wishes to send in the
fruit of his/her love, the corresponding bank account in the National Bank of Greece is
108/296006-09. Furthermore, you can always visit the webpage of the Temple (www.myrtidiotisssa-alimou.gr)
and be informed about the works in progress. We wish from the bottom of our
heart that the blessing of the Holy Trinity is constant in your lives and that
you are always encompassed beneath the veil of protection of the Most Holy
Virgin Mary of Myrtidia.
For the
Ecclesiastical Council
The President
