With the Blessings of Archbishop Makarios of Australia, Bishop Bartholomew of Charioupolis served Matins and the Divine Liturgy for the feast day of the church of the Holy Archangels in the regional town of Albury in New South Wales.
In his sermon, Bishop Bartholomew spoke about the importance of the feast and what the Angels teach us human beings.
At the end of the service, Bishop Bartholomew conveyed the love, blessings, and best wishes of our beloved Spiritual Father and Shepherd of our church here in Australia, Archbishop Makarios.
It must be noted that it was the first time in decades that a Hierarch of our Church has served on the feast day of the Parish.
