On the afternoon of October 9th, Archbishop Elpidophoros of America, together with clergymen of the Archdiocese, gathered in the Chapel of Saint Paul to offer prayers of supplication for the safety of those who continue to be impacted by severe weather in the Gulf Coast, especially Hurricane Milton, which is expected to make landfall the same evening.
The Archbishop knelt before the sacred relics of the saints and martyrs that reside in the Chapel of Saint Paul, including that of Saint Nicholas which was brought from the Saint Nicholas Greek Orthodox Church and National Shrine, and offered the prayer.
