MESSAGE OF THE ECUMENICAL PATRIARCH

Your Eminence, Archbishop Demetrios of America, most honorable Exarch of the Atlantic and Pacific Oceans, beloved brother in the Holy Spirit and co-celebrant of our Modesty: may the grace of God and His peace be with you.

The Mother Holy and Great Church of Christ and our Modesty follow with much gratification, pride and satisfaction the spiritual, ecclesiastical and social work performed under your Emi-nence’s vigilant pastoral care and guidance. We rejoice in the progress and success in Christ of the chosen Orthodox flock of God in America, which was extraordinarily ascertained by the great-est success that crowned the 41st Clergy-Laity Congress of your Holy Archdiocese of America, among other things. Embracing with exceptional love and care the brother Hierarchs of the Holy Archdiocese, who under the spiritual leadership of your love serve in America, your immediate co-workers who work in the field of the Lord, we incessantly commemorate them in the holy offertory and pray that they receive strength from above, so that all of you together constitute the holiest institution of the local Church there, glorifying the “One who called us through divine calling”, our Lord and God and Savior Jesus Christ. You have chosen, beloved brother, as theme for the above mentioned Clergy-Laity Congress, which a few months ago fruitfully concluded its work, the words of the Lord, you did not choose me, but I chose you and appointed you that you should go and bear fruit and that your fruit should abide (John, 15:16). This theme was transformed into a message and at the same time a stimulus and a reminder to all workers in this Vineyard, that you are a “chosen vessel” according to the unfathomable will of the Lord, a vessel that was called and sent to minister, in an ongoing course of offering, so that harvest and fruit follow. And – thank God – the seed that fell on the good soil yielded and yields fruit a hundredfold. Thus, we hope that this coming new year will become an opportunity to all of you to come nearer to the Lord, the source of life and every good thing, and contemplating the immaculate divine and human person of Jesus Christ, strive so that your desires, visions and wishes be in harmony with His divine will and all be saved and see His glory, glory as of the only Son from the father full of grace and truth (John 1:14). With these thoughts and great joy we welcome and salute the yearly publication of the Year-book of the Holy Archdiocese of America, and we congratulate prayerfully and brotherly all for the fruit you have borne, personally and collectively, clergy and laity. We pray that the divine blessing will be abundant upon the God-loving hard working pastoral ministry of Your beloved Eminence, distinguished Hierarch and Shepherd of this God-saved Eparchy, upon their Eminences, the broth-ers around you Metropolitans, their Graces, your Auxiliary Bishops and upon the holy clergy, for a fruitful, peaceful and God-loving course during the year 2013, and for the meeting, as far as pos-sible, of the spiritual and other daily needs of the faithful people in the USA, for their welfare and salvation and for the glory of our Triune God, Whose infinite Mercy and unfathomable Love may be with you all.

MESSAGE OF THE ARCHBISHOP

Beloved Brothers and Sisters in Christ,

As Greek Orthodox Christians and as people of God committed to witness and service, we give thanks to Him for the blessings we have received as we begin a new year. Our hearts and minds are filled with anticipation of the great and abundant fruit that will be produced in our lives and the lives of others as we continue to affirm that we are appointed and chosen by God to go and bear fruit (John 15:16).

Throughout this past year and during our Clergy-Laity Congress, we prayerfully considered this theme. We affirmed that we are the branches, connected to the True Vine, which is our Lord Jesus Christ. In worship, fellowship, and in all areas of ministry of our Holy Archdiocese, we acknowledged that in order to bear fruit in our lives and the lives of others, we must abide in Him and He in us (John 15:5), for He is the way, the truth, and the life (John 14:6).

This new year has been given to us by Almighty God to affirm His divine appoint-ment and to fulfill His mission to go and bear fruit. We have evaluated and renewed our plans for ministry and growth. We have been challenged to consider the pressing spiritual and physical needs in our communities. We have participated in forums, where new ideas and resources have been offered. In fellowship with our brothers and sisters in Christ, we have been renewed in strength and commitment as a united people and as the Body of Christ. Now it is time to go and bear fruit.

As represented by the 2013 edition of our Yearbook, this is a time of great activity throughout our Archdiocese, and in our Metropolises and Parishes. In our dedication to the will of God and His commission to carry the Gospel throughout the world, may we seek to bear great fruit in all that we do. As we did in our gathering in Phoenix, may we continue to affirm that we have been chosen and appointed by God to offer a witness of Him before all people through our worship, our service, and through our lives so that the name of our Lord Jesus Christ may be glorified in us, and we in Him (II Thessalonians 1:11-12).

With paternal love in Christ,

†DEMETRIOS Archbishop of America

Ὡς σύνθημα τῆς πρό μηνῶν ὁλοκληρωσάσης καρποφόρως τάς ἐργασίας αὐτῆς μνημονευθείσης Κληρικολαϊκῆς Συνελεύσεως ἐπελέξατε, τιμιώτατε ἀδελφέ, τούς λόγους τοῦ Κυρίου «οὐχ ὑμεῖς με ἐξελέξασθε, ἀλλ’ ἐγώ ἐξελεξάμην ὑμᾶς, καί ἔθηκα ὑμᾶς ἵνα ὑπάγητε καί καρπόν φέρητε καί ὁ καρπός ὑμῶν μένῃ» (Ἰωάν. ιε΄, 16). Καί τό σύνθημα αὐτό ἀπέβη καί το μήνυμα καί συγχρόνως τό ἔναυσμα καί ὑπόμνησις πρός πάντας τούς ἐν τῷ Ἀμπελῶνι τούτῳ κοπιῶντας, ὅτι εἶσθε «σκεῦος ἐκλογῆς», κατά τάς ἀνεξιχνιάστους βουλάς τοῦ Κυρίου, σκεῦος κληθέν καί ἀποσταλέν εἰς διακονίαν, εἰς μίαν διαρκῆ πορείαν προσφορᾶς, ὥστε νά ὑπάρχῃ καί ὁ ἀμητός, ὁ καρπός. Καί - δόξα τῷ Θεῷ - ὁ πεσών εἰς τήν γῆν τήν ἀγαθήν σπόρος ἀπέδωσε καί ἀποδίδει καθ’ ἡμέραν ἑκατονταπλασίονα. Ὅθεν, ἔχομεν δι’ ἐλπίδος ὅτι καί τό ἀρχόμενον νέον ἔτος θά εἶναι ἀφορμή δι’ ἅπαντας ἵνα πλησιάσητε ἔτι μᾶλλον εἰς τήν πηγήν τῆς ζωῆς καί παντός ἀγαθοῦ, τόν Κύριον, καί, ἔχοντες ἐνώπιον ὑμῶν τήν ἄμωμον καί θεανδρικήν Αὐτοῦ μορφήν, ἀγωνισθῆτε ὥστε αἱ ἐσωτερικαί ἐπιθυμίαι, τά ὁράματα καί οἱ πόθοι ὑμῶν νά ἐναρμονίζωνται πρός τό ἅγιον θέλημά Του ὅπως πάντες σωθῶσι καί ἴδωσι τήν δόξαν Αὐτοῦ, «δόξαν ὡς μονογενοῦς παρά πατρός, πλήρης χάριτος, καί ἀληθείας» (Ἰωάν. α΄14).

MESSAGE OF THE ARCHBISHOP

Προσφιλεῖς Ἀδελφοί καί Ἀδελφές ἐν Χριστῷ,

Ὡς Ἕλληνες Ὀρθόδοξοι Χριστιανοί καί ἄνθρωποι ἀφιερωμένοι στήν μαρτυρία καί διακονία τοῦ Θεοῦ, Τόν εὐχαριστοῦμε γιά τίς εὐλογίες τίς ὁποῖες ἐλάβαμε καθώς ἀρχίζει ἕνα νέο ἔτος. Ἡ καρδιά καί ὁ νοῦς μας εἶναι γεμᾶτοι μέ προσδοκία γιά τούς πλούσιους καί ἄφθονους καρπούς οἱ ὁποῖοι θά παραχθοῦν στή ζωή μας καί στή ζωή τῶν ἄλλων καθώς ἐξοκολουθοῦμε νά ἐπιβεβαιώνουμε ὅτι ἔχουμε ἐπιλεγῆ καί διορισθῆ ἀπό τόν Θεό νά πορευθοῦμε καί νά παραγάγουμε καρπούς (Ἰωάν. 15:16).

Στή διάρκεια τοῦ παρελθόντος ἔτους καί κατά τήν Κληρικο-Λαϊκή μας Συνέλευση, μέ πνεῦμα προσευχῆς μελετήσαμε αὐτό τό θέμα. Ἐπιβεβαιώσαμε ὅτι εἴμεθα οἱ κλάδοι, οἱ ἑνωμένοι μέ τήν Ἀληθινή Ἄμπελο, δηλαδή τόν Κύριό μας Ἰησοῦ Χριστό. Στίς ἐκδηλώσεις λατρείας, καί ἀδελφοσύνης καθώς καί σέ ὅλες τίς ἐκφάνσεις τῆς διακονίας τῆς Ἱερᾶς Ἀρχιεπισκοπῆς μας, ἀναγνωρίσαμε ὅτι γιά νά φέρουμε καρπό στή ζωή μας καί στίς ζωές τῶν ἄλλων, πρέπει νά εἴμεθα ἑνωμένοι μέ τόν Χριστό καί Αὐτός μαζί μας (Ἰωάν. 15:5), διότι Αὐτός εἶναι ἡ ὁδός, ἡ ἀλήθεια καί ἡ ζωή (Ἰωάν. 14:6).

Τό νέο αὐτό ἔτος μᾶς χαρίσθηκε ἀπό τόν Παντοδύναμο Θεό γιά νά ἐπιβεβαιώσουμε τόν θεῖο διορισμό μας καί γιά νά ὁλοκληρώσουμε τήν ἀποστολή πού μᾶς ἀναθέτει, δηλαδή νά πορευθοῦμε καί νά παραγάγουμε καρπό. Ἐκτιμήσαμε καί ἀνανεώσαμε τά σχέδιά μας γιά διακονία καί ἀνάπτυξη. Ἀντιμετωπίσαμε τήν πρόκληση τῆς καλύψεως ἐπειγουσῶν πνευματικῶν καί φυσικῶν ἀναγκῶν στίς κοινότητές μας. Εἴχαμε συμμετοχή σέ συγκεντρώσεις ὅπου ἀκούσθηκαν νέες ἰδέες καί προσφέρθηκαν νέα μέσα. Διαπνεόμενοι ἀπό πνεῦμα ἀδελφοσύνης γιά τούς ἐν Χριστῷ ἀδελφούς καί ἀδελφές μας, ἀνανεώσαμε τήν δύναμη καί τήν ἀφοσίωσή μας ὡς ἀνθρώπων ἑνωμένων καί ὡς Σώματος Χριστοῦ. Τώρα ἦλθε ἡ ὥρα νά πορευθοῦμε καί νά παραγάγουμε καρπό.

Ὅπως παρουσιάζεται στήν ἔκδοση 2013 τοῦ Ἐτησίου Ἡμερολογίου μας, διανύουμε ἐποχή μεγάλης δραστηριότητος σέ ὁλόκληρη τήν Ἀρχιεπισκοπή μας, τίς Μητροπόλεις καί τίς Ἐνορίες μας. Μέ τήν ἀφοσίωσή μας στό θέλημα τοῦ Θεοῦ καί στήν πραγματοποίηση τῆς ἐντολῆς Του νά κηρύξουμε τό Εὐαγγέλιο σέ ὁλόκληρο τόν κόσμο, ἔχουμε τήν δυνατότητα παραγωγῆς πολλῶν καρπῶν μέ ὅ,τι κάνουμε. Ὅπως καί στήν Συνέλευσή μας στό Phoenix, εὔχομαι νά συνεχίζουμε νά ἐπιβεβαιώνουμε ὅτι εἴμεθα ἐπιλεγμένοι καί διορισμένοι ἀπό τόν Θεό νά προσφέρουμε μαρτυρία Θεοῦ σέ ὅλους τούς ἀνθρώπους διά τῆς λατρείας μας, διά τῆς διακονίας μας καί διά τῆς ζωῆς μας ἔτσι ὥστε νά δοξασθῇ τό Ὄνομα τοῦ Κυρίου ἡμῶν Ἰησοῦ Χριστοῦ ἐν ἡμῖν καί ἡμεῖς ἐν Αὐτῷ (Β΄ Θεσ. 1:11-12).

ΑΙ ΕΝ Τῼ ΕΞΩΤΕΡΙΚῼΙΕΡΑΙ ΠΑΤΡΙΑΡΧΙΚΑΙ ΚΑΙ

ΣΤΑΥΡΟΠΗΓΙΑΚΑΙ ΜΟΝΑΙ1. Τό Ἁγίον Ὄρους

Ὁ Μοναχισμός ἐμφανίζεται ἐν Ἁγίῳ Ὄρει περί τόν 5ον αἰῶνα ὑπό τήν μορφήν μεμονωμένων ἀσκητῶν, ἤ κατά μικράς ὁμάδας εἰς ἡσυχίους τόπους αὐτοῦ καί ὑπάρχει παραλλήλως πρός τόν κοσμικόν βίον, ὅστις διατηρεῖται μέχρι τόν 8ον αἰῶνα. Κατά τάς πρώτας δεκαετίας τοῦ 9ου αἰῶνος ὁ Ἁγιορειτικός Μοναχισμός εἰσέρχεται εἰς νέαν φάσιν, ἥτις εἶναι μερικῶς μεμαρτυρημένη ἀπό γραπτάς πηγάς. Τό Ὄρος λαμβάνει τήν ἰδιαιτέραν μοναστικήν φυσιογνωμίαν του, ἀποκτᾶ σύνορα καί διοικητικήν ὀργάνωσιν μέ ἕδραν τάς Καρυάς, ἔνθα δημιουργεῖται Λαύρα, ὀνομασθεῖσα Μεγάλη Μέση, περί τό 940 μ.Χ. Ἐνταῦθα ἑδρεύει ὁ Πρῶτος τοῦ Ἁγίου Ὄρους καί ἡ ἕδρα του ὀνομάζεται ''Πρωτᾶτον''. Τόν 9ον αἰῶνα ἐν Ἁγίῳ Ὄρει ἔζησαν δύο μεγάλαι φυσιογνωμίαι, ὁ Ἅγιος Πέτρος ὁ Ἀθωνίτης, ὅστις ἐγκαθίσταται εἰς τόν Ἄθω περί τά τέλη τοῦ 8ου αἰῶνος καί ὁ Ἅγιος Εὐθύμιος ὁΝέος, ὅστις ἵδρυσε Λαύραν ἐν Ἁγίῳ Ὄρει περί τό 860 μ.Χ. Τῷ 963 μ.Χ. δίδεται ''νέος ρυθμός εἰς τόν Μοναχικόν Βίον μέ τήν ἵδρυσιν τοῦ πρώτου Μεγάλου Κοινοβίου τῆς Ἱερᾶς Μονῆς Μεγίστης Λαύρας τοῦ Ἁγίου Ἀθανασίου'', ἐνισχυομένου οἰκονομικῶς καί ἠθικῶς ἀπό τόν λαμπρόν Βυζαντινόν Αὐτοκράτορα Νικηφόρον Φωκᾶν, φίλον καί πνευματικόν τέκνον τοῦ Ἁγίου Ἀθανασίου. Ἡ ἐπίσημος ὀργάνωσις τοῦ Μοναχικοῦ Βίου ἐν Ἁγίῳ Ὄρει ἄρχεται ἀπό τῆς ἐκδόσεως τοῦ Τυπικοῦ τοῦ Βυζαντινοῦ Αὐτοκράτορος Ἰωάννου Τσιμισκῆ τῷ 972 μ.Χ. Ἀνά τούς αἰῶνας, ἡ Βυζαντινή Πολιτεία καί τό Οἰκουμενικόν Πατριαρχεῖον, ὡς συνέχεια τῆς προσπαθείας μεταδόσεως τοῦ Χριστιανισμοῦ εἰς τούς ὁμόρους λαούς τῆς αὐτοκρατορίας, ἐπέτρεψεν τήν ἐγκαταβίωσιν ἐν Ἁγίῳ Ὄρει Μοναχῶν ἐξ ἄλλων ἐθνοτήτων, κυρίως Ἰβήρων, Σλαύων καί Ρουμάνων, προκειμένου ἵνα βιώσωσι βαθύτερον τό νόημα καί τό περιεχόμενον τῆς Ὀρθοδοξίας, διά νά τό μεταφυτεύσουν ἐν συνεχείᾳ εἰς τούς λαούς των. Τό Ἅγιον Ὄρος σήμερον διοικεῖται βάσει τοῦ εἰδικοῦ αὐτοδιοικήτου καθεστῶτος αὐτοῦ, ὡς τοῦτο κατοχυροῦται διά τῶν διατάξεων τοῦ ἄρθρου 105 τοῦ Ἑλληνικοῦ Συντάγματος, τοῦ Κ.Χ.Α.Ο. καί τοῦ κυρωτικοῦ

Νομοθετικοῦ Διατάγματος τῆς 10ης-16ης Σεπτεμβρίου 1926.

SECTION H: PATRIARCHAL MONASTERIES1) The Holy Mountain (Mount Athos)

The Peninsula of Athos, from the Great Guard and beyond, is called the “Holy Mountain,” which is a self-regulating region in the Greek State, whose sovereignty, nevertheless, remains intact. From a spiritual perspective, the Holy Mountains falls under the direct jurisdiction of the Ecumenical Patriarchate. Its area comprises of 389 sq. kms. Monasticism has been present on the Holy Mountain since the 5th century in the form of eremetical ascetics, or small groupings in remote


60

places of the Mountain, as well as a parallel secular pres-ence which persisted until the 8th century.

In the first decades of the 9th century Hagiorite Monasticism entered a “new phase,” which is well attested to in the historical sources. The Mountain took on its own peculiar monastic character, acquiring boundaries and an organized administration with its seat at Karyes, where the Lavra, called the “Great Middle,” was active around the year 940

A.D. Here the “First” (“Protos”) of the Holy Mountain was situated, and his foundation was called the “Protaton.”

In the 9th century, two important personalities inhabited the Holy Mountain: St. Peter the Athonite, who had come to Athos at the end of the 8th century, and St. Efthymios the New, who founded a Lavra on the Holy Mountain around 860 A.D.

In 963 A.D. monastic life took on a new shape with the founding, by St. Athanasios, of the first Great Coenobium - the Sacred Monastery of the Great Lavra. The financial and moral support for this undertaking came from that preemi-nent Emperor of Byzantium, Nikephoros Phocas, the friend and spiritual son of St. Athanasios. The official organization of monastic life on the Holy Mountain began with the issu-ance of the Typikon of the Byzantine Emperor John Tsimiskis, in 972 A.D.

Throughout the centuries, the Byzantine State and the Ecumenical Patriarchate, in accordance with their efforts to transmit Christianity to the peoples bordering the Empire, permitted monks of different nationalities to dwell on the Holy Mountain (especially there were Iberians, Slavs and Rumanians) so that they might transmit in turn a deeper understanding of the substance of Orthodoxy, and transplant the Athonite way of life to their people. This explains the fact that until this very day, there are non-Greek-speaking mon-asteries which continue to be nourished by the centuries-old Athonite monastic tradition.

THE ORTHODOX CHURCH IN THE WORLD

THE GREEK ORTHODOX ARCHDIOCESE OF AMERICA

The Rev. Robert G. Stephanopoulos, Ph.D.

THE ORTHODOX CHURCH

The Orthodox Church today, numbering over 250 million worldwide, is a communion of self governing Churches, each administratively inde-pendent of the other, but united by a common faith and spirituality. Their underlying unity is based on identity of doctrines, sacramental life and worship, which distinguishes Ortho-dox Christianity. All Orthodox Churches are in communion with the Ecumenical Patriarch of Constantinople who is acknowledged as primus inter pares, first among equals. All are in full communion with one another. The living tradition of the Church and the principles of love, con-cord and harmony are expressed through the common mind of the universal episcopate as the occasion arises. In all other matters, the internal life of each independent Church is administered by the hierarchs of that particular Church. Fol-lowing the ancient principle of the one people of God in each place and the universal priesthood of all believers, the laity shares equally in the responsibility for the preservation and propaga-tion of the Christian faith and Church.

The Sacrament: The Mystical Life of Orthodoxy

An Orthodox Christian, of whatever national origin, may go to any Orthodox Church and receive the sacraments: Baptism, Chrismation, Holy Communion, Confession, Unction, Matri-mony and Holy Orders. Our practice is to baptize infants as full members of the Church, based on a close-knit Christian family and the importance of a sponsor or Godparent in Christian upbring-ing. Christian nurture is placed properly in the home and in the teaching office of the Church.

Baptism: Water Baptism of adults and infants is celebrated by three-fold immersion in the Name of the Trinity. It is an initiation into the Church, forgiveness of sins and the beginning of the Christian life. The Sacrament of Chrismation (Confirmation), in conformity with the ancient practice, is performed immediately after baptism as a seal of the gifts of the Holy Spirit given to the new Christian. Holy Communion is received after baptism, emphasizing the fullness of par-

ticipation in the sacramental life of the Church.

Holy Eucharist/Communion: The Holy Eucharist, known as the Divine Liturgy, is the chief worship service and is celebrated on all Sundays and Holy days during the liturgical year. Orthodoxy main-tains a high sacramental view. The Sacraments are visible signs of an invisible Divine Grace. The elements of bread and wine in the Holy Eucha-rist are the very Body and Blood of Jesus Christ received for the remission of sins and life everlast-ing, after proper spiritual preparation and fasting.

Holy Unction: Holy Unction, the Sacrament of the sick, is an anointing with oil and prayers for those who need healing of body and soul and spiritual support. However, it is not exclusively a “last rite.”

Confession: Confession or the Sacrament of Penance is necessary to the spiritual devel-opment, forgiveness and growth of a believer. This is usually conducted privately, in the pres-ence and under the direction of a spiritual father and confessor.

Marriage: Christian marriage is the Sacrament of union of a man and woman for mutual com-plementarity and propagation of the race. The crowning is a sign of witnessing to Christ and His love for the Church. It must be performed by an Orthodox priest on behalf of the community of faith.

Holy Orders: Holy Orders or Priesthood is a spe-cial ministry of service in and for the Church. The three major orders of clergy are deacon, pres-byter and bishop. Bishops are consecrated by at least three other Bishops. Orthodox priests are often married men. Bishops are chosen from among the monastic clergy who have taken the vow of celibacy. The clergy are entrusted with maintaining the unity of the Church teaching and the sacraments.

Many other rites and blessings are expressions of the one sacramental ministry of the Church. All of these may be seen as gracious and spiritu-ally fruitful actions for the welfare of the faithful. There are services for the dead, based on the understanding that the entire church, visible and

invisible, is one communion of faithful bound together in love and prayer.

The Greek Orthodox Archdiocese of America

Before the establishment of an Archdiocese there were numerous communities of Greek Orthodox Christians. The first Greek Orthodox community in the Americas was founded in New Orleans, LA by a small colony of Greek merchants. History also records that on June 26,1768 the first Greek colonists landed at St. Augustine, FL, the oldest city in America. The first permanent community was founded in New York City in 1892, today’s Archdiocesan Cathedral of the Holy Trinity. The Greek Orthodox Archdiocese of North and South America was incorporated in 1921 and officially recognized by the State of New York in 1922.

The Greek Orthodox Archdiocese of America is under the jurisdiction of the Ecumenical Patri-archate of Constantinople and is composed of an Archdiocesan District — New York and eight Metropolises: New Jersey, Chicago, Atlanta, Detroit, San Francisco, Pittsburgh, Boston and Denver. It is governed by the Archbishop and the Eparchial Synod. The Synod is headed by the Archbishop and comprised of the Metropolitans who oversee their own Metropolises. The Synod has all the authority and responsibility, which the

Church canons provide for a provincial synod.

There are over 560 parishes, over 840 priests and approximately 1.5 million faithful in the Greek Orthodox Archdiocese of America. The Archdiocese receives within its ranks and under its spiritual aegis and pastoral care Orthodox Christians, who either as individuals or as orga-nized groups in Metropolises and Parishes have voluntarily come to it and which acknowledge the ecclesiastical and canonical jurisdiction of the Ecumenical Patriarchate.

CLERGY-LAITY CONGRESS

The Clergy-Laity Congress, the highest leg-islative body of the Archdiocese, is convened biennially and presided over by the Archbishop. It is concerned with all matters, other than doc-trinal or canonical, affecting the life, growth and unity of the Church, the institutions, finances, administration, educational and philanthropic concerns. The delegates to the Congress are pastors and elected lay representatives.

THE ARCHDIOCESAN COUNCIL

The Archdiocesan Council is the deliberative body of the Greek Orthodox Archdiocese, which meets in the interim period between Clergy-Laity Congresses.

His All Holiness Ecumenical Patriarch Bartholomew signs the Indiction marking the new Ecclesiastical Year at the Phanar on September 1, 2012. The Orthodox Christian Church also marks September 1 as the Day for the Protection of our Natural Environment. (September 2012)

METROPOLIS OF CHICAGO

St. Iakovos Retreat Center History

For 30 years, the need for our own retreat center has been a priority of His Eminence Metropolitan Iako-vos of Chicago, the Clergy throughout our Parishes, and the Laity. Committees appointed by His Eminence have searched over the years for a site to develop such a cen-ter. Over 10 years ago, the search shifted into high gear as a committee reinvigorated attempts to establish a re-treat center. Locations were viewed in Northwest Illinois, Northern Illinois, Northwest Indiana and Wisconsin. All to no avail. In the spring of 2005, the committee viewed a par-cel of property in Brighton Wisconsin. Within minutes of walking this property, the committee was of one mind that God had led them to this site which was to become the Saint Iakovos Retreat Center. The land, formerly known as Pride’s Acres, was placed under contract pending accep-tance by the Metropolis Council and the Metropolis Clergy Laity Assembly. In October of 2005, the Metropolis Clergy Laity As-sembly held in St. Louis, Missouri, a request was made to approve the purchase of the property. The answer from the delegates at that Assembly was a resounding and unanimous YES. At that time the Metropolis committed to purchase and pay for the property without burdening the Parishes. The purchase of the property closed on June 2, 2006 and the Saint Iakovos Retreat Center was offi-cially established as a Wisconsin not for profit corporation with the Greek Orthodox Metropolis of Chicago as the sole shareholder.

From the very beginning, the Saint Iakovos Retreat Center has been used by faithful, parishes and or-ganizations of our Holy Metropolis. The past three years alone, with limited fa-cilities, has seen an average of 25 groups per year use the Saint Iakovos Retreat Center for day long or over-night retreats and activities. This represents over 700 people annually visiting this undeveloped site. In September of 2008 by the Grace of God the Me-tropolis fulfilled its promise to the Parishes by paying off the entire $2.3 million loan

without placing any burden on the parishes. Since that time, the property is ours, free and clear. After additional fundraising, the Retreat center Board of Directors (the Board) was ready to proceed with selec-tion of an architect and design of new buildings on the property. At the Clergy Laity Assembly in October 2011, in Champaign, Illinois the assembled delegates authorized the Board to proceed with design of the proposed Saint Iakovos Retreat Center facility. The architectural firm of Prosi Design, Inc. was contracted and developed the pres-ent construction documents we have today. The plans have been approved for permits, a contractor has been selected and the Development Committee of the Board is in the final stages of negotiation of the price and terms of the contract. Pursuant to the Parish Regulations of the Greek Or-thodox Archdiocese of America, on December 8, 2012, the Board placed before a special session of the Local Assembly of all parishes within the Metropolis of Chica-go, encumbrance of the Retreat Center for purposes of obtaining a loan to complete construction of new facility. The motion to obtain the loan was resoundingly accepted.

St. Iakovos Retreat Center Mission Statement

Offering opportunities for every child of God, regardless of age or background, to experience in their lives, the love of God the Father, hope in Jesus Christ our Savior, and spiritual growth through communion with the Holy Spirit, in a safe Orthodox Christian environment, surrounded by the natural beauty of God’s creation.

EMERGING LEADERS MINISTRY

In June, 2012 Metropolitan Methodios convened the first meeting (left) of the Steering Committee for the new Emerging Leaders Ministry. The Metropolis of Boston received a grant from Leadership 100 to launch this ministry, a two-year program to be piloted in the Metropolis to serve as a prototype throughout the Archdiocese of America.

For more information please see: www.boston.goarch.org/news/metropolis_news/2012/965.html

SUNDAY WORSHIP

Sunday has lost its significance in our soci-ety, becoming less of a day of worship of almighty God and more like any ordinary work day. In October, 2012 a joint statement was issued titled “The Importance of Sunday” by The North American Orthodox-Catholic Theological Consultation in Washington D.C to which Metropolitan Methodios leads the Orthodox del-egation.

For more information please see: www.boston.goarch.org/news/metropolis_news/2012/1040.html

MASSACHUSETTS BALLOT QUESTION NUMBER 2

Metropolitan Methodios invited Cardinal O’Malley (Catholic Archbishop of Boston) (left) and over 60 religious leaders from across Massachusetts (below) to the Metropolis to discuss the issue of the Massachusetts ballot question number 2, which if passed would have legalized physician assisted suicide in Massachusetts. The ballot initiative was defeated thanks in part, to the coalition formed among the religious leaders during their summit.

METROPOLIS OF SAN FRANCISCO

METROPOLIS OF SAN FRANCISCO INITIATES STRATEGIC PLANNING PROCESS

The Metropolis of San Francisco recently embarked on the challenging and visionary process of formulating a Strategic Plan. The results of this effort will provide the Metropolis of San Francisco with a road map to ensure that it is not only proceeding methodically with its work, but that the Metropolis is being proactive in developing meaningful pro-grams and ministries for the spiritual, educational, and social edification of its faithful. A committee of nearly 50 clergy and lay people repre-senting the diverse regions of the Metropolis gathered for a two-day retreat. Their efforts began with an analysis of the Strengths, Weaknesses, Opportunities and Threats facing the Metropolis, followed by the identification and articulation of the Core Values which are guiding the overall work of the Metropolis: Christ-centered; Active participation in sacramen-tal life; Education; Integrity, transparency and accountability; Stewardship; Outreach and evangelism; Inclusiveness and engagement; Courage; Communications using all media; Financial responsibility; and Minister to all generations and strengthen our families and relationships. These Core Values then led to the development of a Vision Statement for the Metropolis, and after thorough and extensive analysis, prayerful reflection and consensus-driven discussions, the Strategic Planning Committee unanimously embraced the following “SWEEPing” Vision:

Metropolis of San Francisco Vision We will grow the Orthodox Christian Church in the Western United States through Christ-centered: Stewardship Worship Education Evangelism Philanthropic Outreach

Using the Core Values once again as a guide, the fol-lowing Task Forces have been formed and are now actively working on their plans for program development and imple-mentation. These Task Forces are: Specialized Ministries/Wellness; Stewardship; Philanthropic Outreach; Mission and Evangelism; Youth; Education; Finances; Liturgical Life; Communications; Parish Organization and Development; and Metropolis Organization and Development. God has given us the stewardship responsibility over the Greek Orthodox Metropolis of San Francisco. The Metropolis looks forward to the full realization and implementation of this plan. There is no end to what we can achieve if we work together for God’s greater glory and as faithful stewards of His Holy Orthodox Church.

METROPOLIS OF NEW JERSEY

In 2011 the Greek Orthodox Metropolis of New Jersey witnessed the establishment, renovation, and expansion of the new Metropolis Headquarters. In 2012 that vision and enthusiasm, which inspired the Metropolis Headquarters, had firmly taken root and grew among the Faithful Parishes of the Holy Metropolis of New Jersey.

Three Communities of the Holy Metropolis of New Jersey saw the construction of new Church edifices in 2012. St. Sophia, Ss. Faith, Hope and Agape-in Jeffersonville, PA; Saint George --in Ocean, NJ (formerly Asbury Park, NJ); and Ss. Nicholas, Constantine and Helen-in Roseland, NJ. The success of these beloved Communities has also been the inspiration for other Communities throughout the Holy Metropolis of New Jersey. His Eminence, Metropolitan Evangelos when asked about this new and continued growth, re-marked that, “The growth which the entire Holy Metropolis of New Jersey is witnessing is a direct result of the seed having been sown in the ‘good soil’. The efforts and labors of many faithful Greek Orthodox Christians, over many years, have truly taken root and are blossoming ‘one-hundred fold’ throughout the entire Holy Metropolis of New Jersey. With God’s blessings and grace, 2013 will prove to be a year with a most bountiful harvest!” Glory be to God for all things!

As scientific and technological changes occur in our societies today at high speed and with penetrating power, our everyday life is profoundly affected by them. Because such develop-ments are novel and because they have the capacity to affect fundamental questions, such as those related to the beginning and end of life, human reproduction, the way we receive and process information, the structure of the society, and our pres-ent and future existence in the physical environment, critical legal, ethical and moral questions emerge that often puzzle the common citizen as well as the societal leadership. Many of these issues have become hot and contested questions on the political arena but have also entered the consciousness of religious leaders. Such issues are specifically concerned with the possible impact these developments might have on theo-logical teachings and moral positions and practices that have been accepted and observed for centuries or even millennia. Based on the above observations, a need was perceived for the clergy and lay leadership to be better informed on scientific and technological issues, and for the laity who are engaged in science and technology to understand the broader implications (ethical, sociological, and religious) of science and technology and the concerns that are generated by rapid advances and radical changes.To address these needs among both clergy and laity, the Arch-diocesan Advisory Committee on Science and Technology (AACST) was formed in 2001 by a group of scientists, engi-neers, medical and legal professionals, as well as theologians, under the guidance of His Eminence Archbishop Demetrios, and with the approval of the Holy Eparchial Synod and the Archdiocesan Council. The membership of the Committee is based on the following set of criteria: (i) wide professional recognition and excellence in the respective fields of endeavor; (ii) proven, active involvement in the life of the Church and a substantive knowledge of Orthodox theology; and (iii) willing-ness to devote energy and time to the task. The Committee membership is a “living” list and, therefore, continues to be

enriched with new members as more persons who fulfill these criteria are nominated and appointed. The work of the Com-mittee has been organized in three Subcommittees as follows: 1. Subcommittee on Bioethics and Medical Issues;

Coordinator: Prof. Gayle Woloschak. 2. Subcommittee on Energy, Environment, and Economics;

Coordinator: Dr. Achilles G. Adamantiades; and 3. Subcommittee on Physical Sciences and Advanced

Technologies; Coordinator: Dr. Nikolaos Paschali-dis.

The Committee has been working through local meetings, ad hoc consultations, conferences, and exchanges of electronic mail. The Committee made presentations at all Clergy-Laity Congresses since the year 2002, as follows:the 36th, in Los Angeles (summer of 2002); the 37th, in New York City (summer of 2004); the 38th in Nashville, Tennessee (summer of 2006); andthe 39th in Washington, D.C. (summer of 2008). In this last Clergy-Laity Congress, the Committee organized a special session on “The Ethics of Global Climate Change” with rep-resentatives from the United Nations, the U.S. Government, the academic world, and the theological field. The session was co-chaired by the NGO Representative of the Greek Orthodox Archdiocese to the United Nations.The papers presented in the above Congresses as well as addi-tional publications and papers can be found at the Committee’s web site, accessible at www.aacst.goarch.org.According to its official terms of reference, the AACST serves in an advisory capacity to the Archbishop, the Synod, and the clergy and lay leadership of the Archdiocese. The Committee works also toward the preparation of resource material that will assist the pastoral and educational ministry of the Church.

ARCHIVES AND RESOURCE CENTER

8 East 79th Street, New York, NY 10075-0106 • Tel.: (212) 570-3517

Nikie Calles Director of Archives


Mission

The mission of the Department of Archives & Resource Center is to systematically col-lect, organize, catalogue, and maintain the documents relating to the history of the Greek Orthodox Archdiocese of America and the Greek-American Community. As a repository of select resources, the depart-ment’s goal is to preserve our indelible past, chronicle our present and to provide a valuable resource center for future gen-erations interested in the unique history of our Holy Archdiocese, the vast richness of our Greek Orthodox Faith and Hellenism in America.

Introduction

The Department of Archives is one of the most important ministries of our Holy Archdiocese. It is and has great potential of becoming a repository of select resources that bear witness to the unique history of our Holy Archdiocese and the vast rich-ness of our Greek Orthodox Faith in the Americas.

The Greek Orthodox Archdiocese of America has amassed a unique and valu-able collection of materials relating to the history of the Greek people, their culture and religion in the Americas. This material continues to be an important linchpin to the present-day life of the Community.

Historical Development

Since the establishment of the first Greek Orthodox Church in 1892, the evolution of the Greek American community has

become a primary concern of the Church and her leadership. Thus, through the work of this vital department, the preservation of historical documents of the Greek Orthodox Church and Hellenism in the Americas has become a priority.

Established more than thirty years ago, the Department of Archives has undertaken the task of systematically evaluating, organiz-ing and classifying voluminous files, dating as far back as 1905. These documents, which preceded the formal establishment of the Greek Orthodox Archdiocese of North and South America, record the history, progress and growth of the Church and her institutions, the Greek American community and numerous fraternal, social, cultural and educational organizations.

The Department of Archives, once envi-sioned only as a dream, has now become a reality. After many years of work, the records of our history represent a profes-sional approach to the preservation of our Greek Orthodox heritage in the Americas.

The Department of Archives has undertaken a long-term project to digitize documents, photographs, artwork and objects that reflect the history of the Archdiocese and its members.

The digital preservation of the Archives has been made possible through generous grants from the Niarchos Foundation, the Stephan and Catherine Pappas Foundation and the Archbishop Iakovos Leadership 100 Endowment Fund.

ARCHDIOCESE BENEFITS OFFICE

As Orthodox Christians we are called to trust in the Lord for all our needs both human and spiritual. We know, however, that we must do our share. For the spiritual “security” of our souls we must pray, fast, confess and live a Christ-like life. For the physical “security” of our lives we must institute a pension, life insur-ance, medical and disability program.

To address the temporal needs of our cler-gy the Archdiocese Benefits Committee was established to direct and manage the Archdiocesan Benefits Program for clergy and lay employees.

The Archdiocese Benefits Committee meets twice a year, each Spring and Fall, to receive and act on reports from its standing commit-tees. Each standing committee consists of clergy and lay-persons with particular interest and professional expertise in the areas the committee oversees.

The Administration Committee meets at least four times a year. It is responsible for the opera-tion of the Pension Plan. It establishes rules for its administration and acts on applications for pension benefits and related issues.

The Benevolence Committee considers and acts on requests for financial assistance for clergy and their families.

The Investment Committee meets regularly to review the investment performance of the Pension Fund against established objectives and strategies. It establishes the investment guidelines and has the power to appoint and dismiss the funding agent(s).

The Insurance Plans Committee meets as needed to consider issues related to the Arch diocese-sponsored insurance plans. It selects the insurance carrier, appoints the broker-administrator and negotiates benefits and rates.

MISSIONThe mission of GOTelecom is to serve the needs of the Greek Orthodox Church in America by producing and disseminat-ing religious, cultural and educational mass media materials pertaining to Orthodox Christianity and Hellenic Tradition. Our goal is to help educate our Orthodox and Hellenic audiences so that they may develop pride and confidence about their faith and cultural heritage. Then we will work to educate the audience at large — so that together we may help develop the proper perceptions about Orthodoxy and Greek culture.

1) internally — to archive the activities of the Archdiocese,

2) to produce in-house programs that educate and awaken our faithful about the ministries of our Archdiocese and,

3) to produce programs of quality that can be distributed nationally on television and through video (full-length programs and public service announcements).

OTHER GOTELECOM PROGRAMS:Throughout our 20 years, we have produced over 200 programs and have received awards from many organi-zations. Our two EMMY Awards have shown our faithful that Orthodox Christianity can be proclaimed with originality and excitement…on videotape.

DISTRIBUTIONThe Department has continued its sales of DVD and video-tapes to our parishes, schools, universities and homes. Our daily duties include fulfillment of these orders. Additionally, GOTelecom has acquired the rights to distribute numerous outside productions. In addition to distribution relationships with Greek Orthodox distributors, i.e. Light & Life, we have established contracts with Vision Video, and bookstores of other Orthodox jurisdictions.

Each parish in America should have our entire library of videotapes available in a “lending library.” Additionally, university, college and high school libraries should have our major titles available for research and information.

BROADCASTINGGOTelecom staff produce and coordinate national promotion of events within the Greek Orthodox Archdiocese, including visits of His Eminence to parishes and communities in the US and overseas.

THE PRESS OFFICEThe Greek Orthodox Church in America has emerged on the national and international scene as a vital and vibrant religious presence and thus the Archdiocese is increasingly involved in issues of concern to its faithful and to the society at large.

The Archdiocese Press Office, News and Media Relations cultivates and maintains the relationships of the Greek Orthodox Archdiocese of America with Press and Media organizations in the United States and abroad in order to best communicate the Church’s mission and message of hope and love. The Press Office has a pivotal role in explaining how the ministries, offices, programs and policies of the Archdiocese have an impact on the parishes, the community, the clergy and the faithful. In the words of His Eminence Archbishop Demetrios of America, the Press Office has the role of “representing the Archdiocese in an excellent way and facilitating her sacred work of promoting the Orthodox Faith and the universal values of Hellenism.”

“In a democracy, dealing with the press is a duty,” writes Stephen Hess, a Senior Fellow on Governance Studies with the Brookings Institution and Distinguished Research Professor of Media and Public Affairs at George Washington University. St. Paul in his second letter to Timothy writes: and they will turn their ears away from the truth, and be turned aside to fables. But you be watchful in all things, endure afflictions, do the work of an evangelist, fulfill your ministry (2 Timothy 4:4-5). Dealing honestly and truthfully with the Press is keeping with St. Paul’s charge, is a Christian duty and an important ministry.

The Press Office is the daily conduit through which the Press gets in formation on the life and workings of the Arch diocese. Its role is dual; on one hand to deal with the Press and on the other to keep the Arch bishop and senior staff informed on press interests.

It strives to provide advice and ways on how to deal with the news media and, using news management techniques, helps the Archdiocese to maintain a positive public image and avoid negative media coverage.

In particular the Press Office is responsible for:

• Responding and answering journalist’s inquiries

• Writing, editing and distributing press releases, media advisories, fact sheets, press packets and media kits

• Initiating and developing feature stories in print and electronic media

• Arranging and organizing press conferences, news briefings, media interviews, photo opportunities, visits and public events

• Coordinating photo coverage and dissemination of photos and video to Press

• Cultivating new relationships and monitor and nurture existing ones with national, ethnic and international media

• Monitoring, researching and evaluating news

• Developing and reassessing clear goals in cooperation with other departments of the Archdiocese

• Developing and maintaining a crisis plan and procedures

• Assisting in Archdiocese special projects and in staging large public events

• Developing and maintaining relationships with other press offices (church, religious, governmental, organizational)

The director of the Press Office also represents the Arch-diocese in community public interest organizations, develops pertinent community relations, monitors community events and activities and interfaces with various event organizers.

on CD and videotape to Greek American news outlets around the country and to Greek news

organizations around the world. (December 2012)

Garifallia Zaharopoulos, Administrative AssistantEmail: [email protected]

The Church, being the body of Christ in the world, is responsible for the material well-being of the souls en trusted to her care. As an institution in this world, but not of the world, she must carefully balance the spiritual needs of her flock against the material neces-sities required to advance the Gospel of Jesus Christ in the world. To this end, the Department of Finance is charged with maintaining the material well being of the Archdiocese of America so that it may flourish as an icon of God’s plenty and mercy.

The Department of Finance is responsible for the oversight of all financial matters of the Archdiocese. Its constant task is to oversee all the institutions of the Archdiocese

and the Metropolises that comprise the Greek Orthodox Church in America. The Department effects the will of the Arch bishop and the Archdiocesan Council in fiduciary matters. It advises and assists persons and institutions in the Archdiocese on matters re lating to accounting, as well as fiscal health and responsibility.

The Department also coordinates an extensive year end financial audit of the Arch diocese as well as Archdiocese institutions and affiliates. The financial statements of the Arch diocese, its institutions and affiliates, are audit-ed annually by one of the world’s largest independent accounting firms.

MISSION AND RESPONSIBILITIESThe IT Department’s mission and charge exists to aid in pro-claiming the Gospel of our Lord and Savior Jesus Christ. The Information Technology (IT) Department is responsible for overseeing all Archdiocesan technologies. The IT Department provides strategic visioning, development, and operational sup-port to the Archdiocese. Thus, the mission of the IT Department is multifaceted and includes:

1) Developing and implementing the Archdiocese’s overall technology strategy and strategic plan

2) Overseeing and approving all technological development, applications and services for the Archdiocese and all her Departments

3) Evaluating emerging technologies

4) Generating technology policies and procedures

5) Setting and enforcing digital graphics standards

6) Establishing Archdiocesan technology standards and compliance guidelines

7) Creating secure, reliable and effective information systems within the Archdiocese and between the Archdiocese, its Metropolises, institutions, organizations, and parishes.

8) Maintaining the infrastructure that supports those systems

9) Providing technical support to the people who use those systems

The fulfillment of this mission involves assessing the technology and informational needs of the Archdiocese as a whole, recom-mending, and implementing solutions to meet those needs. The IT Department is responsible for all computer operations and systems at the Archdiocese. Coordinating technology efforts in the various Archdiocesan departments, organizations and insti-tutions is also a focal point for the Department in order to provide standardization of technology and improve the speed, efficiency and accuracy of information shared and disseminated. The IT Department also works closely with the Department of Internet Ministries, which is the department directly responsible for digi-tal ministry to the parishes and parishioners of the Archdiocese.

TECHNOLOGY COMMITTEE The Technology Committee acts as an advisory body that has been created to assist the Archdiocese in its technology endeavors. The Technology Committee is a formal committee on the Archdiocesan Council. The committee members are actively involved with the IT Department and Internet Ministries Depart-ment in various projects. The clergy and lay committee members are made up of both technology and non-technology profes-sional from across the Archdiocese.

ALEXANDER PROJECTThe IT and Internet Ministries Departments along with the Technology Committee have developed a strategic technology plan for the Archdiocese called the “Alexander Project.” The initiative is named after Alexander the Great whose conquests:

1) Unified the disparate Greek city states

2) Established Greek as the common language throughout the world

3) Laid the foundation for Christians to utilize Greek to spread the saving message of the Gospel throughout the nations

Following in this legacy of our faith and heritage, the Alexander Project aims to:

1) Unify the geographically diverse metropolises, parishes, and the Archdiocese with desperately needed centralized system for parishioner management

2) Establish a set of technology standards and a unified technology architecture that will allow for seamless interoperability across systems and services

3) Leverage this dynamic tool for Orthodox Christian ministry

Among its many benefits, this strategic technology plan will digitize the Archdiocese’s antiquated sacramental registry, provide a mechanism for instantaneous parishioner updates throughout the Archdiocese, and create a personalized and tailored ministry and educational experience for parishioners based upon their role within the Church.

INTER-ORTHODOX, ECUMENICAL AND INTERFAITH RELATIONS

The Ecumenical Office has as its main function the task of providing information, stimulating interest and coordinating ecumenical activities on the archdiocese, metropolis and parish levels. It adheres to the principle that Orthodoxy and Orthodox ecumenism must always speak the truth, never compromising the integrity and purity of Orthodox teachings, but always respecting the sincerity of the religious convictions and spiritual sensitivities of others. It involves the following areas of interest:A) Assembly of Canonical Orthodox

Bishops of North and Central America The Assembly was established by the Decision of

The Fourth Pre-Conciliar Pan-Orthodox Conference that met at the Orthodox Center of the Ecumenical Patriarchate in Chambesy, Switzerland from 6 to 13 June 2009. This Conference, to which all of the Autocephalous Churches were invited and were rep-resented, studied the issue of the canonical organi-zation of the Orthodox Diaspora (places where there is no unitary Church administration). Pursuant to article 16 of the Rules of Pre-Conciliar Pan-Orthodox Conferences, this Conference discussed the relevant documents submitted in 1990 and 1993 by the Inter-Orthodox Preparatory Commission, and based on them, created twelve “Episcopal Assemblies” throughout the world, North and Central America being one of them.

The Assembly has met three times, in May 2010, May 2011, and September 2012, under the chair-manship of His Eminence Archbishop Demetrios (as Exarch of the Ecumenical Patriarchate). The Assembly declared itself to be the successor of the Standing Conference of Canonical Orthodox Bishops in the Americas (SCOBA), assuming its agencies, dialogues, and other ministries. Thirteen committees were established and charged with various specific tasks. Furthermore, the process of incorporating the Assembly was finalized at the end of 2011.

Bilateral Dialogues of the Assembly 1. Joint Commission of Eastern and Oriental

Orthodox Churches 2. North American Orthodox/Roman Catholic

Theological Consultation 3. Joint Committee of Orthodox/Roman Catholic

Bishops

B) The National Council of Churches of Christ in the USA (NCCC) and Church World Service (CWS)

The Greek Orthodox Archdiocese is represented by clergy and laity on the Governing Board, the Faith and Order Commission, and several key committees.

The Department of Marriage and Family has been established to consider issues relevant to the well-being of marriage, family life, our Church and society. The institutions of marriage and family are under assault, and the challenges are becoming increasingly more complex. The Archdiocese is sensitive to these changes, and is seeking to address them in an effort to facilitate religious and spiritual development and promote healthy, holy marriage and fam-ily life from an Orthodox perspective. To pursue this effort there are currently two arms of this Department—the Center for Family Care and the Office of Interfaith Marriage.

CENTER FOR FAMILY [email protected] • www.family.goarch.orgThe mission of the Center for Family Care of the Greek Orthodox Archdiocese of America is, in the words of His Eminence Arch-bishop Demetrios, “both to affirm the importance of the family as a blessed gift of God and to address the specific needs of families as they try to live in a very challenging culture and world…. through this program we will be working to bring more aspects of our faith into the home and to bring more families into the Church.”

There are many facets of family life and, therefore, different ways we can minister to the families in our Greek Orthodox Archdiocese. The first national study on the Orthodox Family in America at Home and in Church (2010) gave us much insight into the religious practices of families (for the results visit our website). As the ministry grows, our scope will branch out so that we can provide resources and services for all Orthodox Christian families in every stage of the family life cycle. Currently some of our resources are: • Parish Family Night • Table Top Prayer Guide: Volume I and II • Family Worship: Creating and Using a Place in Your Home • Family Gospel Lessons • Family Retreats, Seminars, and Parent Workshops • Web site • Family Connections page in the Orthodox Observer (and annual expanded edition) • Family Link Email Ministry Recently, we added another ministry to the Center, Seminarian and Clergy Couple Care. This new ministry is devoted to the develop-ment of programs and resources that will help to prepare seminar-ian couples for ministry and assist and support couples in ministry. To aide in this effort, a study is being instituted on the impact of ministry on priest and presvyteras.

OFFICE OF INTERFAITH MARRIAGEwww.interfaith.goarch.org Vital statistics kept by the Department of Registry indicate that the numbers of inter-Christian marriages conducted in the Greek Orthodox Archdiocese of America have steadily increased. Today, nearly two thirds (63%) of all marriages conducted in the Archdio-cese are designated inter-Christian. When Greek Orthodox persons marrying outside of the Archdiocese are also considered, intermar-riage rates are likely closer to 75–80%.

Given these and other similar statistics, the Archdiocese has chosen to view these trends as a challenge and an opportunity for growth. With love toward all, and with a desire to witness Orthodoxy to all persons who choose to worship in our Greek Orthodox churches, the Archdiocese has taken a proactive approach in its efforts to reach out to intermarried couples and their families. All resourc-es produced by this department are evidenced based and firmly grounded on Orthodox Theology. Some of the resources available are as follows:

• The Interfaith Marriage Web site affords clergy, lay leaders, lay workers and inter-Christian, interfaith couples readings, resources and related links. • A regular column continues to be featured in the in the Ortho-dox Observer addressing marital and family concerns. In addition, articles have been authored for professional journals as well as theological publications• The following resources have either been authored or co-authored by Fr. Joanides which promote Marital and family well-being. (1) When You Intermarry: A Resource for Inter-Christian Intercultural Couples, Parents and Families, (2) Ministering to Intermarried Couples: A Resource for Clergy and Lay Workers, (3) Attending to Your Marriage: A Resource for Christian Couples, (4) The Journey of Marriage, and (5) Pastoral Perspectives: Divorce and Remarriage. • Marriage building workshops, and lectures on the topic of in-termarriage continue to be offered throughout the Archdiocese upon invitation.• A series of brochures entitled, Interfaith Marriage: Opportunity for Outreach is also now available for clergy, lay leaders and inter-married couples and their families. • A premarital education program entitled The Journey of Mar-riage which is intermarriage friendly is now available and being installed across the Archdiocese.

Abby Vlahos, Grant Research and Proposal WritingThe Office of Parish Development is a resource to assist your parish with: • Raising Funds for Capital Improvement • Strategic Planning • Expanding Stewardship • Seeking Grants for Parish Programs • Establishing a Parish Endowment • Other Fundraising Guidance

Every parish in America—from the youngest mission to the most established cathedral— has growth needs. What is the next goal for your parish? • To build a new parish sanctuary • To expand existing parish facilities • Identify goals and gain parish consensus

through strategic planning • To increase stewardship • To start an endowment program

Attaining these goals is always challenging. Thankfully, there is help available to give your parish guidance. You do not need to start this work from scratch!At any point in time, many parishes throughout the Greek Orthodox Archdiocese are in need of fundraising assistance from an objective and experienced source. The use of outside fund-raising counsel, which is standard for nonprofit organizations, has become a widely accepted practice for individual parishes, as well. The benefits received from these services in terms of greater organization, better execution, and more dollars raised makes the costs worth-while. While there are a variety of fundraising consultants whose services are specifically tailored to work with churches, there are few such consultants who understand the unique characteristics of Greek Orthodox parishes. In 2004, through a grant from the Archbishop Iakovos Leadership 100 Endowment Fund, the Archdiocese created the Office of Parish Development (OPD) to provide such fundrais-ing assistance specifically for Greek Orthodox parishes.

PARISH DEVELOPMENT

The services of the OPD are unique in several ways. The fundraising approach of the office is based on direct experience and personal involve-ment with Greek Orthodox parishes across the United States. The OPD aims to assist parishes using an effective strategy that is rooted in sound fundraising principles. Even more importantly, OPD staff members work to ensure that funds are raised in such a way as to glorify God and to enhance the spiritual life of all involved in the project. Areas of Assistance include the following:

Capital Campaign Planning StudiesBefore undertaking a major capital campaign, it is advisable to have an objective third party assess the parish’s fundraising potential. A planning study provides this feedback to a parish as it identifies the right steps to take to maximize the campaign’s effectiveness.

Ongoing Capital Campaign Assistance and ManagementA successful campaign begins with a strategy built from experience. It is conducted through tried-and-true methods. Most parishes do not have fundraising professionals on staff to guide this important effort.

Strategic Planning Seminars and AssistanceStrategic Planning workshops are an effective way to gain parish consensus, plan outreach initiatives, identify parishioner hidden talents, and begin to move the parish toward a “preferred” future.

Stewardship Workshops and AssistanceAll parishes are at slightly different points in growing in stewardship. In the important work of encouraging individual stewards to stretch them-selves further in giving back to God through the Church, no one strategy will work for all parishes. The Office of Parish Development can help your parish to improve its current stewardship practices through a variety of ways.Please contact us at (847) 825-1432 or via email at [email protected] for additional information.

PHILANTHROPY

This Archdiocesan Department is responsibly for coordinating the philanthropic outreach of the Greek Orthodox Archdiocese of America and works closely with various community organiza-tions, most especially the Ladies Philoptochos Society and IOCC. In addition to promoting a true understanding of philanthropy in its purest sense i. e., love for one’s fellow human being…love expressed in thought, word, and deed, the Department has also been charged with over-seeing and coordinating the work of the various relief funds which have been established by the Archdiocese during this time. These funds include: The September 11th Fund in which over $2.1 million was collected and distributed, the Hurricane Katrina Relief Fund which distributed over $900,000 in assistance, the Greek Fire Relief which distributed close to $4 million, the Relief Fund for the People of Greece which as of December 1, 2012 dis-tributed almost $900,000 to assist the people of Greece impacted by the economic crisis and the Hurricane Sandy Relief Fund which has just been established by the Archdiocese to offer

assistance to parishes and individuals impacted by Hurricane Sandy. Moreover, this office strives to heighten sen-sit ivity within parishes, Church-affi l iated organizations and the faithful of the Archdio-cese to those members of the community with special needs so that there is outreach to them and inclusion within the life of the parishes. These include people who are blind, physically handicapped, mentally challenged, afflicted with debilitating diseases, elderly facing problems because of their advanced age, those in prison, those suffering from terminal illnesses, and countless others. It is the intent of the office to facilitate as much as possible their participation in the salvific life of the Church.In 2006, the Department of Philanthropy assumed responsibility for the Benevolence Fund for Retired Clergy and Widowed Pres-vyteres and during the past 7 years has collected and distributed over $500,000 in monthly stipends to retired priests and widowed pres-vyteres with meager retirement incomes.

A meeting is held at the Archdiocese Headquarters with Archbishop Demetrios and members of the Greek Relief Fund. Funds have been collected from generous parishes, organizations and individuals across the country to assist in economic aid for Greece. (April 2012)

The Department of Registry of the Archdiocese maintains a variety of records pertaining to the life and activities of the faithful of the Greek Orthodox Archdiocese of America. These records are often used to issue transcripts for the faithful who have lost original certificates (which are now required for legal or ecclesiastical purposes). The Depart-ment also issues ecclesiastical licenses to marry, divorce decrees (following a Spiritual Court hearing), baptismal and chrismation certificates (for use by the priests), and forms for reporting deaths and funerals. Below is an over-view of how some of these responsibilities are handled:

Parish LevelAll records of baptisms, chrismations, weddings, divorces and funerals are maintained in the Parish Registry Books. The local parish priest detailing the information recorded in his parish’s Registry Books issues transcripts upon receiving a request from the individual involved. The priest who prepares them signs these transcripts. His hierarch then validates the authen-ticity of the priest’s signature. These transcripts can be used as needed and serve the same function as those original certificates issued at the time of the Sacrament. In the case of a Church Divorce Decree, however, dupli-cate copies are not issued. The original, as issued, must be submitted when applying for an ecclesiastical mar-riage license.

Metropolis LevelAs of September 1, 1979, each Metropolis established a Registry Department, which processes marriage license requests, issues ecclesiastical licenses to marry, and maintains copies of the records for baptisms, chrisma-tions, marriages, and funerals, as the parish priests following the Sacraments submit them. The Metropolis Registry Departments also maintain the petitions for divorces, the minutes of the Spiritual Court hearings that pertain to divorce petitions and copies of the divorce decrees issued. The Metropolis Registry Departments also issue to the priests certificates signed by the Metropolitan for baptisms and chrismations. (Prior to September 1, 1979, the Archdiocesan Department of Registry did all of this for all the parishes of the Archdiocese. Since then, this is only done for theparishes within the Direct Archdi-ocesan District.)

Archdiocese LevelThe Archdiocese Department of Registry maintains the records of weddings and divorces from 1923 until August 31, 1979, that took place throughout the Archdiocese. Since September 1, 1979, only those records that pertain to the parishes of the Direct Archdiocesan District are kept at the Archdiocese Registry Department. Records of baptisms, chrismations and funerals as the parish priests submitted them are also archived at the Archdiocese.

The Archdiocese also coordinates the tabulation of the statistics from throughout the Archdiocese. This infor-mation is published annually in the Yearbook of the Archdiocese.

The Department of Registry will be seeking to utilize the latest technology to address the enormous task of sorting, indexing and cataloguing the paper records archived, as well as to investigate the possibility of processing certifi-cates and documents electronically, in order to:

1) Make it feasible to access the documents that the faithful request in a timely manner;

2) Provide multiple copies of the archiving media for storage and safekeeping at secure locations across the country;

3) Provide the parish priests the ability to process affida-vits and certificates in a more timely fashion; and,

4) Enable the Archdiocese and each Metropolis to have close to real-time statistics of Sacraments being cele-brated across the country and in each Metropolis.

Accurate documentation and the ability to provide such documentation will become even more critical in the years ahead. The Department of Registry is committed to uti-lizing the resources at its disposal to ensure, as much as possible, that the faithful of the Holy Archdiocese of America have access to the information and documenta-tion that they require.

RELIGIOUS EDUCATION

Mission — The mission of the Department of Religious Education (DRE) is to serve the parishes and metropolises of the Archdiocese by developing and providing materials and services that will advance their religious education programs. The Department also serves individuals, organizations, military bases, ecu-menical groups, and overseas parishes with resources that advance the spiritual admonition to “Grow in the grace and knowledge of our Lord and Savior Jesus Christ” (2 Peter 3.18).

The DRE website (www.religioused.goarch.org) pro-vides more information on the Department and its programs, resources, and other useful information for Church school supervisors and teachers.

The Department works to accomplish its mission through the following areas:

Resource Development — The Department produces pupil texts, teachers’ guides, and supple-mentary resources for use in parish religious educa-tion programs from pre-school to high school. The Department has resources that can be utilized for adult education programs in the parish, ranging from Bible Study packets to study guides.

St. John Chrysostom Oratorical Festival — The Oratorical Festival provides young people (from grades 7-12) an opportunity to research, to pre-pare, and to deliver a speech on topics related to their Greek Orthodox faith and heritage. The Oratorical Festival Scholarship Fund provides the awards to the finalists at the National Festival.Teacher Certification — This program provides teachers with an opportunity to learn and grow in their knowledge of Orthodox Christianity and educational methods. This program is presently being reviewed

for expansion for the beginning as well as the more experienced teacher.

PRAXIS Magazine — Published three times per year (Fall, Winter, Spring), PRAXIS focuses on aspects of educational ministry and includes articles on program development, religious topics, leadership development, and reviews of resources.

STEWARDSHIP, OUTREACH & EVANGELISM

Rev. Father James W. Kordaris, Director • Email: [email protected]

In 2009 His Eminence Archbishop Demetrios created the new Department of Stewardship, Outreach & Evangelism. Arch-bishop Demetrios commented, “This new department, being the result of merging two departments, will renew our focus on Stewardship resources and education while advancing Outreach and Evangelism and producing practical and modern resources for Parish Ministry.”

The Director is supported by the Archdiocesan Council Stewardship and Outreach & Evangelism Committees and their Advisory Boards. Both are comprised of representatives from each Metropolis and the Direct Archdiocesan District and were formed to share best practices from parishes throughout the country and support Archdiocesan efforts to provide guidance and practical resources to the parishes.

THE ANNUAL STEWARDSHIP RESOURCE PACKETStewardship resources are directed to parish leadership throughout the Greek Orthodox Archdiocese of America as part of an ongoing effort to provide the parishes with practical and inspirational ministry resources. This is the first step in a year-round effort to support parish stewardship ministries and to educate and inspire the faithful. Additional resources are avail-able electronically through the Stewardship Web Site, E-mail communications and hard copy.

STEWARDSHIP TRAININGThe Stewardship Ministries Subcommittee on Training ar-ranges for training of parish leaders in the principles and procedures for implementing an effective parish stewardship program. Stewardship Ministries is also initiating a program for the training of future parish leadership through Holy Cross Greek Orthodox School of Theology.

PLANNED GIVING RESOURCESThe National Stewardship Ministries Subcommittee on Planned Giving provides a complete set of resources to the parishes of the Greek Orthodox Archdiocese of America with the goal of assisting parish members in their estate planning while encouraging them to remember the Church in their plans. An investment in this program could yield exponential results for the parishes while providing our members with much-needed guidance and materials for end-of-life planning from an Ortho-dox Christian perspective.

PARISH MANAGEMENT SOFTWARE INITIATIVEIn response to inquiries from the parishes, National Steward-ship Ministries established a Subcommittee on Parish Manage-ment Software. This effort is being carried out in coordination with the Departments of Administration, Finance and Informa-tion Technologies. This initiative will providing donor tracking, financial management, and uniform reporting. In addition, the program will enhance parish ministry by allowing parish lead-ership to engage members in a more informed, personal and constructive way. Software piloting began in February 2012 in a select number of parishes. A phased rollout of the software to the parishes across each of the Metropolises and the Arch-diocesan District began in late first quarter of 2012.

PERSON-TO-PERSON MINISTRIESThe Department of Stewardship, Outreach & Evangelism pro-vides a number of resources to assist parishes in revitalizing the faith of active Orthodox Christians; reaching out to inactive Orthodox Christians, and offering the Orthodox Christian faith to all who would receive it. The list of resources includes:

ACCESSIBILITY/INCLUSION/PEOPLE WITH DISABILITIESThe Department supports parish outreach to people with disabilities, also known as Inclusion Programs. This effort includes sharing of information on appropriate language and etiquette, outlines of successful parish programs, accessibility issues and more. Initial efforts will be to provide parish re-sources that raise awareness of the need and various ways we may better serve people with disabilities. Long term plans include education of parish leadership in the importance and the proper manner of interacting with people with disabilities, and the documentation of existing successful parish inclusion programs in a format that encourages other parishes to initiate similar programs.

ORTHODOX NATURAL CHURCH DEVELOPMENT The Department is piloting a program for objectively evaluat-ing, assessing, and measuring church health using a process called Orthodox Natural Church Development (ONCD). This program has been in existence for almost 20 years, and its implementation among Orthodox Christian parishes here in North America is increasing.

GETTING STARTED A useful starting point in formulating a parish outreach plan is the booklet Outreach & Evangelism: Some Practical Steps.

FAMILY OUTREACH SUNDAY The DSOE, in cooperation with National Philoptochos and the Center for the Family, has developed a program for a Family Outreach Sunday in which active church members are encour-aged to invite inactive family members and Orthodox Christian friends for a special day of Christian fellowship and spiritual renewal.

MANY ADDITIONAL BROCHURES AND MINISTRY RE-SOURCES ARE AVAILABLE THROUGH THE DEPARTMENT

Ionian Village is the travel abroad camping ministry of the Greek Orthodox Archdiocese of America. Young people travel to Greece from all over the United States to participate in the program. During their experience at Ionian Village, they are immersed in their Orthodox faith and Greek culture, while making new friends from across the U.S. Each year Ortho-dox Christian teenagers and young adults gather together at Ionian Village, nestled between a pine forest and our private beach on the Ionian Sea, to embark on a spiritual and cultural odyssey. The Ionian Village experience provides campers with the opportunity to walk in the footsteps of the saints and their ancestors, while traveling through Greece and building their relationship with Christ.

Summer Camp Excursions include:• The islands of Zakynthos, Kefalonia, Kerkyra and Aegina, to venerate the relics of Saint Dionysios, Saint Gerasimos, Saint Spyridon and Saint Nektarios respectively.

• The church of St. Andrew in Patras, to venerate the relics of Saint Andrew.

• Monasteries such as Mega Spileion where we venerate St. Luke’s first century icon of the Theotokos, and Agia Lavra, where the fight for Greek Independence began

• Ancient Olympia, Epidavros, and the Acropolis

• Local villages surrounding the camp like Bartholomeo, Gas-

touni, Kastro, and Glyfa

• And new excursions are added yearly!

The camping experience offered by Ionian Village is invaluable and one of a kind. The daily sessions conducted on the camp-grounds consist of Athletics, Arts and Crafts, Music and Greek Culture, and Orthodox Life. Daily worship includes morning prayers and evening prayers, as well as Divine Liturgy on Sun-days and major feast days. Ionian Village participants gain a full appreciation for Orthodoxy and Hellenism, and to learn how to become active participants in their Orthodox faith.

Ionian Village offers two Sessions for campers in the 8th – 12th grades

ARCHDIOCESAN CATHEDRAL OF THE HOLY TRINITY

The Archdiocesan Cathedral of the Holy Tr inity has continuously proclaimed the Gospel in New York City since 1892. Eleanor Roosevelt laid the cornerstone of the present historic edifice in 1931. As the oldest Greek Orthodox parish in New York City, and as the Archdiocesan Cathedral since 1962, Holy Trinity has been called “the gateway to Orthodoxy in America.” In its rich 120-year history the Cathedral has served everyone from the rich and powerful to the poor and downtrodden.

Our Cathedral also serves as local parish to hundreds of New York City families from Manhattan and beyond, who come to worship, marry, christen & educate their children and bury their deceased. With the support of these families – and supporters from around the globe – our Cathedral proudly and tirelessly promulgates Orthodoxy and Hellenism in the New World.

The year 2012 saw another milestone in the Cathedral’s progress with the installation, by His Eminence Archbishop Demetrios, of Fr. Anastasios Gounaris as Cathedral Dean. Fr. Anastasios – who was ordained to the priesthood in New York City in 1983 – has served parishes in Saginaw, Michigan

(1985-1991) and Indianapolis, Indiana (1991-2012). During his tenure in Indianapolis, he presided over the planning and construction of a $10 million, state of the art parish facility, which includes a cultural center, classroom wing, administrative suite and acclaimed 650 seat Byzantine naos.

Our Cathedral School (an accredited institution of learning offering grades K-8) is a premiere educational institution, with a diverse student body that serves Greek Orthodox students – as well as those of many races, religions and creeds.

The Cathedral has embarked on new ministries and new modes of outreach. These include expanded music ministries, higher quality live webcasts of worship services, teen GOYA, Alcoholics Anonymous – as well as renewed emphasis on expanded print and digital communications and a soon-to-be redesigned web site. A groundbreaking 2013 Stewardship campaign with expanded online giving opportunities – including a QR code – is being rolled out to educate the faithful on the importance of dedicating their God-given time, talents and treasure to Christ and the Church.

HELLENIC COLLEGE AND HOLY CROSSHellenic College Holy Cross, the oldest and largest accredited Orthodox Christian institution of higher educa-tion in America, offers theological, professional and liberal arts programs that integrate faith, learning and service. HCHC is one academic community comprised of two dis-tinct schools that have evolved together. Hellenic College offers BA programs in theology, professional studies and the liberal arts. Holy Cross Greek Orthodox School of Theology is the seminary of the Greek Orthodox Archdio-cese in America and has prepared students to serve the Church as priests, theologians, lay assistants, iconogra-phers, church musicians, religious educators, counselors, missionaries and chaplains.

Hellenic College is a vibrant Orthodox Christian college offering six different majors. Students experience its chal-lenging academics that are further enriched by cultural opportunities in Boston and abroad. Hellenic College cul-tivates the intellectual, spiritual, and moral development of its students so that they might serve and contribute to society and the Church. To that end, Hellenic College fosters intellectual development in its students engaging them in liberal arts and professional curricula that demand rigorous inquiry and academic scholarship. The College promotes spiritual and moral development by incorporat-ing students into the practices, teachings, and liturgical life of an Orthodox Christian community. Hellenic College’s distinctive pedagogy fosters a holistic growth in experi-ence for each student. Growing intellectually, spiritually, socially and personally, Hellenic College is a place where professional occupations become sacred vocations.

Holy Cross, the theological school of the Greek Orthodox Archdiocese of America and member of the prestigious Boston Theological Institute(BTI), is the oldest and largest Orthodox Christian school of theology in America, offer-ing three graduate degrees; Master of Divinity (MDiv), Master of Theological Studies (MTS) and Master of Theol-ogy (ThM). Holy Cross has served as the only seminary of the Greek Orthodox Archdiocese in America since it was founded in 1937 in Pomfret, Connecticut. Since moving to Brookline Massachusetts in 1947, students and faculty have benefitted greatly from the world-class educational resources and rich cultural offerings of Boston. Well over 90% of the priests currently serving in the Greek Ortho-dox Archdiocese of America are graduates of Holy Cross and Hellenic College Holy Cross has alumni throughout America and in over 20 countries around the world.

The School’s beautiful 53 acre campus is perched on a scenic hilltop overlooking downtown Boston. HCHC students can enjoy being integral members of a richly diverse and active community of over sixty-five colleges and universities in the greater Boston area. Hellenc Col-lege students are able to cross-register at Boston College and Newbury College. Holy Cross students, through the institutions membership in the BTI, are able to cross-reg-ister at several colleges and universities including Harvard Divinity School and Boston University.

As the higher education ministry for the Greek Orthodox Archdiocese, HCHC serves as the training center for lead-ers for Church and the society at large. HCHC is home to several institutes and programs that serve the greater Orthodox community.

SAINT BASIL ACADEMY

Saint Basil Academy is the Greek Orthodox Archdiocese home for children in need. Purchased in 1944 by the National Philoptochos Ladies Society, the former Jacob Ruppert estate is nestled among a lush green forest along the Eastern Bank of the Hudson River directly opposite the United States West Point Military Academy, and with in an hour’s drive from New York City.

Serving as a philanthropic center of the Church, the purpose of the Academy is to provide a loving Christian environment, where resident children are nurtured into adulthood.

Although children are brought to the Academy for various reasons, the common thread of all the resi-dent children is the inability of a parent or guardian to sufficiently care for them. Operating 24 hours a day, seven days a week, the Academy serves Orthodox children from all areas of the coun-try including Arizona, Illinois, Massachusetts, Connecticut, New York, and New Jersey. The children are referred to the Academy through par-ish priests and Philoptochos, and most recently through referrals from departments of social ser-vices in Massachusetts and New York.

Focusing on the total child, each child’s spiritual, emotional and material needs are addressed and provided for in chapel, recreational, and fam-ily type settings. Academically the children are strongly encouraged to meet their goals while receiving their formal education from area school systems. The children are fully integrated within their schools.

When not in school, the children are the respon-sibility of the Residential Life Counselors. The Residential program, which is administered by the Residential Life staff, promotes individual growth and development. Within the dormitory type setting, the Residential Life staff is responsible for maintaining discipline, teaching personal hygiene, and teaching responsibility through the assignment

of specific chores. Recreationally, activities such as volleyball, baseball, soccer, softball, arts and crafts and cooking are promoted. Overall, the children have a variety of programs to

choose from in order for them to find and develop their own creative outlets.

The spiritual aspect of the program beautifully enhances all that the children learn at school and at the Academy. After the daily afternoon

chapel service there is a catechetical sermonette where the children learn

about their faith. Sunday mornings the children sing the entire Divine Liturgy and are able to share the joy as one family. The importance of the Ortho dox faith is always accented. That, coupled with the diverse activities and outside schooling, is what allows the children to grow up to be healthy, whole some, and well-rounded Christian individuals.

The Academy is able to provide this safe family environment and home thanks to the generosity and prayers of many of its stewards. Educating, housing, and clothing a single child is quite costly, and the costs are always increasing. Caring for the children, the first and foremost priority, in addition to maintaining over 260 acres and 25 buildings, is a task of tremendous proportion. However, over the years, the generosity of the Ladies Philoptochos, AHEPA, Daughters of Penelope, various church communities, indi-viduals, volunteers and others who have given of their time, talents, finances and love, is what sustains the children’s mission.

Throughout the course of the past year, hundreds of individuals and many groups have visited. Retreats and conferences are often held at the Academy, including GOYA retreats, Philop tochos retreats, and visits from the Young Adult League, AHEPA and Daughters of Penelope. Saint Basil Academy always has been and will continue to be a safe haven for Orthodox children in need. However, in an effort to accommo date the many

visitors, and expanding on the current mission, there are plans for a new Retreat and Conference Center, which will be a spiritual haven for all Ortho-dox Christians, young and old. The future is exciting and the potential for ministry is tre mendous...all this for the Glory of God and His children.

Over 55 years of Quality Care for the Elderly

The ONLY Greek Orthodox residential adult care home in the United States, St. Michael’s Home is licensed by the New York State - Department of Health and provides its residents assisted living. Opened in 1958, this Archdiocesan institution has provided quality care to countless Greek Orthodox elderly and while most residents are from the Tri-State area (NY, NJ &CT), a growing number are from other areas of the countries.

A non-profit entity, St. Michael’s has NEVER received subsidies from the Archdiocese or the government but depends on its boarding fees and donations to meet its expenses. Last year, over one-quarter of the Home’s operating budget was covered by contributions and the quality of life for residents would be greatly diminished without these gifts.

The facility encompasses private and semi-private bedrooms for 60 senior citizens; a magnificent chapel; modern medical office; recreation room; beauty salon and other accommoda-tions needed for the quality care of its residents. In addition to housing and meals which are prepared under the supervi-sion of a certified nutritionist, the Home provides residents with assistance with their daily routine, taking of medications, laundry and housekeeping services, a full-time recreation pro-gram and 24 hour supervision. Physicians of various areas of

specialty visit the Home each week and arrangements have been made for procedures such as x-rays, blood tests, EKG’s, etc. to be done in-house by visiting technicians.

Applicants must be Greek Orthodox and as per the strict regulations of the Department of Health, all residents must be ambulatory and not require on-going nursing care but the Home is able to accept and care for individuals suffering from various degrees of dementia/altzheirmers. Individuals are not required to turn over their assets but submit the monthly boarding fee established by the level of accommodation they have requested. Applicants on SSI are accepted by the Home and each case is individually evaluated (no one will be denied admission because of inability to pay).

In a continuing effort to meet the needs of the community, St. Michael’s is now licensed to offer Respite Care for those fami-lies looking for temporary housing for the elderly. Because of the increased demand for its services and to meet the growing needs of the community, St. Michael’s is aggressively pursuing an expansion project which will not only increase its capacity but will also expand the level of care which the facility is pres-ently permitted to offer by the State.

The St. Photios Greek Orthodox National Shrine is a memorial to all Greek immigrants and a living witness to Orthodox Christian-ity. One of the five institutions of the Greek Orthodox Archdiocese, the Shrine is located in the Avero House which served as the place of refuge and worship for the 300 survivors of the New Smyrna Colony who in 1777 escaped and settled in the capitol city of the East Florida Province, assimilating into the Spanish culture of St Augustine. The initial settlers numbered 1400, 500 of whom were Greeks. Enlisted by British entrepreneur, Dr Andrew Turnbull, they arrived in 1768 on 8 ships and were integral to the plan to create the largest European agricultural settlement in the New World. This endeavor proved there are no bounds to suffering and torture.

The Archdiocese acquired the property via five Greek Orthodox families known as the Shrine Founders. Archbishop Iakovos and all the hierarchs of North and South America dedicated the Shrine. In 1985 the mortgage was burned through the generosity of AHEPA and a reliquary with the bones of 18 saints sanctified the site. The reliquary is venerated in the narthex of the St Photios Chapel.

Highlights in 2012 include: Archbishop Demetrios of America, Metropolitan Alexios of Atlanta and Bishop Dimitrios of Xanthos celebrated the 30th Anniversary of the Dedication of the Shrine at the annual St Photios Pilgrimage weekend. There was an

outpouring of support by Trustees, Archons, and Friends of the Shrine. The Archbishop bestowed the Medal of St Paul upon Archon Dr. Manuel N Tissura and Maria Carantzas, Esq. for their steadfast dedication to the Shrine. Bill, Pamela and Michael Toundas were recognized as Volunteers of the Year. First Vice President Tissura also honored Director Polexeni Hillier for her seven years of service.

Revenue producing programs include Light

A Candle, Friends’ Membership, the Wall of Tribute, as well as the St. Photios Shrine Archbishop Iakovos Endowment Program and Enhancement Project. Founded by His Eminence in 2001, these two compo-nents insure that the Foundation can meet the preservation needs of the Shrine while growth can continue in perpetuity.

The St. Photios National Shrine is located in the Colonial Quarter in historic downtown St. Augustine, at 41 St. George Street. The beautiful gardens of the Constantine Sis-ters Courtyard and the magnificent chapel through the hands of George and Michael Filippakis are why many call St Photios “the jewel of St. George Street.” Pilgrimages to the National Shrine are encouraged.

The Shrine is open Monday through Satur-day, 9:00 a.m. to 5:00 p.m., Sunday from 12- 6:00 p.m. except for major holidays. It is a self-supported Archdiocesan Institution, thanks to the generosity of its benefactors and friends. The Shrine operates a Gift Shop and the National Shrine Church Supplies established to enable churches in finding the lowest cost ecclesiastical items while ensur-ing an income for the Shrine (800) 222-6727 or [email protected].

The Archdiocesan Presbyters Council seeks to support, enhance, and promote the brotherhood of our priests on all lev-els of their ministry by promoting continuing education, spiritual growth and personal devel-opment. Established in 1970 as the National Presbyters Council with the expressed pur-pose of receiving counsel from and offering counsel to then Archbishop Iakovos (1911-2005) concerning pr iest ly issues, the current APC continues to work closely with Archbishop Demetrios, as well as the Eparchial Synod of Bishops and the Chancellor of the Archdiocese in addressing the concerns of our clergy.

Each Metropolitan Clergy Syndesmos is represented by two members of the clergy who are elected for a two year term, which both commences with and concludes at the

Archdiocese Clergy Laity Congress. The Council extends its function through the appointment of standing committees, which deals with clergy issues such as liturgical concerns, continuing education, moral issues, family and celibate life, ministry and mission, and clergy health insur-ance and retirement benefits. Priests nationwide may keep abreast of current events through the web-site and the APC publication, The

Presbyter. The APC organizes and sponsors the National Clergy Retreat which is held biennially on the off-year of the Clergy Laity Congress. A Benevolent Fund has been established to assist a brother priest, a sister presvytera, or a clergy family in time of extreme financial need. The fund is administered jointly by the APC and the National Sisterhood of Presvyteres and requests for assistance may be made to the President of either organization.

LADIES PHILOPTOCHOS SOCIETY

The Greek Orthodox Ladies Philoptochos Society, Inc. is the philanthropic arm of the Greek Orthodox Archdiocese of America. Established in 1931, Philoptochos has offered over 80 years of philanthropy through a variety of outreach and programs which make a difference in people’s lives in the United States, and throughout the world. Identifying and aiding those in need and responding quickly to disas-ter, Philoptochos reach is wide. Philoptochos is comprised of a National Board, Metropolis Boards and 485 Chapters nationwide.

His Eminence Archbishop Demetrios has said, “Philoptochos is an expression of love and care. Philoptochos must continue to do what God does by loving people.”

The Philoptochos mission is:

•Tohelpthepoor,thedestitute,thehungry,theaged,thesick, the unemployed, the orphaned, the imprisoned, the widowed, the handicapped, the victims of disasters, to undertake the burial of impoverished persons and to offer assistance to anyone who may need the help of the Church through fund raising efforts; and

•TopreserveandperpetuateOrthodoxChristianconceptsand the Orthodox Christian Family, and through them, to promote the Greek Orthodox Faith and traditions, in accor-dance with its doctrines, canons, discipline, divine worship, usages and customs; and

•TopromoteparticipationintheactivitiesoftheGreekOrtho-dox community, with the cooperation of the Parish Priest and the Parish Council.

The charitable work of the Society is performed with discre-tion, courtesy and kindness.

NATIONAL PHILOPTOCHOS SOCIETY PROGRAMS AND MINISTRY COMMITMENTS

Academy of Saint BasilIn March 1944, Philoptochos purchased the 250-acre estate of Jacob Ruppert in Garrison, NY, which is located on the shores of the Hudson River. With the purchase of this estate, the Philoptochos completely renovated the property and built a Chapel, creating what is now the Academy of Saint Basil. Philoptochos remains a key financial supporter of St. Basil’s through:

VasilopitaThis event is held in January across the United States by every Chapter and is a major source of funding for St. Basil’s operating expenses.

SisterhoodSisterhood, provides for the ongoing needs of the children of St. Basil’s, such as clothing, furniture, equipment and other essentials as well as funding for ceremonies and awards for students who are graduating.

Zoe Cavalaris Education FundThe Zoe Cavalaris Education Fund provides financial assis-tance to St. Basil Academy graduates to attend schools of higher education, as well as providing for tutors for younger children.

Hellenic College Holy Cross School of TheologyThe Holy Cross School of Theology was established by Arch-bishop Athenagoras in June 1937, in Pomfret, CT. The Archbishop directed a special appeal to the Philoptochos to “devote” themselves to the School, “where your sons will be educated as priests and teachers”. The School has since moved to Brookline, MA. Over 75 years later, Philoptochos continues its strong commitment and financial support to Holy Cross through:

• Scholarships For over 20 years, scholarships have been awarded to worthy and dedicated students at both Holy Cross and Hellenic College to assist them with their tuition.

• Lenten Event Philoptochos celebrates on the third Sunday of Lent, observing the Veneration of the Holy Cross. A Lenten Event is organized by Chapters following the Divine Liturgy with proceeds used to help with the School’s operational expenses.

Saint Photios ShrineIn 1965, the Archdiocese purchased the Avero house in his-toric Saint Augustine, Florida to commemorate the arrival of the first Greek settlers to the New World in 1768. The Philoptochos continues its commitment to provide financial assistance towards the preservation of this National Shrine.

Orthodox Christian Mission Center and Support a Mission Priest The Philoptochos Society provides financial support to the OCMC missionary teams, strengthening their ability to empower the Orthodox Church worldwide and to carry its message to those who have yet to hear it. In addition, this ministry commitment enables Orthodox bishops and priests

in mission areas, to build and restore churches, community centers, schools and medical facilities as well as to participate in training, teaching and field management.

International Orthodox Christian CharitiesThe IOCC is the official humanitarian aid agency of Orthodox Christians providing food, shelter, economic assistance and hope to those in need around the world. Philoptochos part-ners with the IOCC to serve as first responders during major national and world disasters. Ecumenical PatriarchateThe philanthropies of the Ecumenical Patriarchate such as Balukli Hospital and nursing home, schools, shrines and par-ishes are supported by this ministry commitment.

United Nations International Children’s Emergency Fund In 1979, to commemorate the United Nation’s “International Year of the Child”, Philoptochos became a Non-Governmental Organization with the United Nations and UNICEF. Philopto-chos donations help this global organization protect the rights, health and well-being of children.

Social ServicesNational Philoptochos provides free and confidential social work services to Greek Orthodox and Orthodox Christian individuals and families throughout the United States of America, as well as Greek and Cypriot nationals who are in the US, regardless of their immigration status. Based on an assessment interview conducted by a licensed, bilingual social worker, Philoptochos helps members of our commu-nity address and resolve, as best as possible, problems and concerns they face regarding issues of poverty and income inadequacies; health, mental health and substance abuse; housing and homelessness; aging, youth and family ser-vices; and domestic violence. When warranted and properly documented, limited financial assistance is provided, per the guidelines established by Philoptochos.

Autism FundThe Center for Disease Control and Prevention has called autism a national public health crisis more common than pediatric cancer, diabetes and AIDS combined. This fund provides assistance and support to persons within the autism spectrum and promotes education to heighten autism aware-ness.

Children’s Medical FundSince its establishment in 1989, the Children’s Medical Fund has provided medical assistance to critically ill Greek, Greek-American and Orthodox children, whose families are unable to afford appropriate and necessary medical treatment. The Fund also identifies and provides grants for innovative research programs to pediatric hospitals throughout the United States.

Emergency FundIn recent years, there have been an unprecedented number of natural disasters throughout the world which have required repeated, direct solicitations to the Chapters, delaying the Society’s ability to respond expeditiously and efficiently. This fund enables the Philoptochos Society to immediately respond to those in need, in times of national or international crises. In 2012 Philoptochos donated $25,000 to the people in Greece severely affected by the economic crisis. This donation was

expedited through the IOCC to provide medical supplies and food staples. In addition, $30,000 in total was donated to both the Direct Archdiocesan District Philoptochos and the New Jersey Metropolis Philoptochos to help in the Hurricane Sandy relief efforts.

General Medical FundThe General Medical Fund was established in response to a need to provide a funding mechanism for persons seeking assistance in connection with illnesses not specifically cov-ered by other, restricted Philoptochos funds and programs.

National Sisterhood of Presvyteres (NSP) Benevolent FundThe National Sisterhood of Presvyteres was formally estab-lished in 1982, and is comprised of all Presvyteres of the Greek Orthodox Archdiocese of America. The monies raised are donated to the NSP Benevolent Fund, established to pro-vide short-term support for clergy and/or their families in a time of crisis.

Orthodox Christian Fellowship (OCF) FundThe OCF is the official collegiate campus ministry program. Its mission is to support fellowships on college campuses, whose members experience and witness the Orthodox Church through community life, prayer, service to others and study of Faith. This fund provides support to the more than 300 local university chapters throughout the country.

Retired Clergy Association’s (RCA) Benevolence FundFunds raised provide support and guidance for retired clergy and widowed presvyteres who are facing financial problems or living at a poverty level.

Seventy - Fifth Anniversary Founders FundThe National Philoptochos 75th Anniversary Founders Fund honors the Founders of the National Philoptochos by providing financial assistance to Greek Orthodox older adults and their families to assist with funeral, housing, utility, unreimbursed or uncovered medical expenses, home health care, hospice, and safety equipment; existing or proposed continuing care facilities; special projects that have been proposed, reviewed and approved.

NATIONAL FORUM OF GREEK ORTHODOX CHURCH MUSICIANS

WHAT IS THE NATIONAL FORUM?The National Forum of Greek Orthodox Church Musicians is the Archdiocesan ministry responsible for liturgical music activities and the development, support, and recognition of church musicians. Chartered in 1976 as an official auxil-iary of the Archdiocese, the National Forum serves as the liaison among local church musicians, Metropolis church music federations, and the Archdiocese. It also serves as the gathering place for church musicians to discuss issues re lated to liturgical music and to formulate needed responses.

The National Forum has three major areas of focus:

3 Support for CHOIRS, providing resources and activities to improve the quality of choirs and the availability of choral music in the church

The Greek Orthodox chaplain is a priest who provides the Holy Mysteries to Orthodox Christians and who additionally provides pastoral ministry to people in all walks of life. Some priests serve full-time as chaplains in the armed forces, whereas other parish priests have assumed additional respon-sibilities as chaplains at Veteran’s Administration hospitals, with local police forces, at prisons, and in hospitals. One of the most significant features of chaplaincy activity is ministry to individuals other than Orthodox Christians, and the witness of our Orthodox faith among all Americans.

Orthodox lay persons employed as professional hospital chaplains are not under the ecclesiastical supervision of the Archdiocese and are therefore not listed herein.

ARMED FORCES CHAPLAINSArmed Forces chaplains are highly-qualified priests who (1) integrate the roles of clergy and commissioned officer, (2) care for Orthodox Christians while providing for the free exercise of religion by all personnel, and (3) understand the realities of military life.

VETERANS ADMINISTRATION CHAPLAINSVeterans Administration chaplains are priests serving within VA facilities who are aware of the spiritual and moral dimensions which often arise from the anxieties, problems and fears which accompany illness and disabilities. These chaplains are also sensitive to the variety of religious and cultural backgrounds of the VA patients to whom ministry is provided.

PRISON CHAPLAINSPrison chaplains are priests doing challenging, pastoral ministry with inmates, staff, and their families. These chaplains provide individual spiritual and personal counseling, help bring resolution to crisis situations, respond to inmate needs, and serve as advocates for inmates’ rights.

POLICE CHAPLAINSPolice chaplains minister to members of law enforcement agencies having spiritual, psychological or emotional problems. Specific duties include: crisis intervention, death notification, grief counseling, memorial services, victim and witness assistance, confidential pastoral care, stress management, spiritual guidance, marriage and family guidance.

OTHER CHAPLAINSAll parish clergy routinely visit patients in hospitals and meet with university students. Some priests have additional training and have attained qualifi-cations to provide specialized ministry to individuals in these categories.

Note: Following are all chaplains who have submitted information.

Secretary to the Chairman:Rev. Fr. Mark AreyEmail: [email protected]

The Assembly of Canonical Orthodox Bishops of North and Central America was established by the Decision of the Fourth Pre-Conciliar Pan-Orthodox Conference that met at the Orthodox Center of the Ecumenical Patriarchate in Chambesy, Switzerland from 6 to 13 June 2009, after the extraordinary Synaxis of all the Heads of the Autocephalous Churches con-vened by His All Holiness Ecumenical Patriarch Bartholomew (October 10-12, 2008). This Assembly, one of the twelve that that have been established around the world in regions where there is no single Orthodox presence, will consist of the active canonical bishops who reside in the region designated as North and Central America. In every Assembly, the chairman will be the senior bishop of the Ecumenical Patriarchate.

The Assembly, which meets annually, has established thirteen committees to help further its work. These committees, com-posed of member bishops and assisted by lay and clergy advi-sors, are charged by the Assembly with specific tasks.

The Assembly declared itself to be the successor of the Standing Conference of Canonical Orthodox Bishops in the Americas (SCOBA), and it assumed its agencies, dialogues, and other ministries. Unlike SCOBA however, the Assembly is a transitional body. If it achieves its goal, it will make itself obsolete by developing a proposal for the canonical organiza-tion of the Church in North and Central America. This proposal will in turn be presented to the forthcoming Great and Holy Council, which will consist of all canonical Orthodox bishops throughout the world.

The Assembly met for the first time under the chairman-ship of His Eminence Archbishop Demetrios (as Exarch of the Ecumenical Patriarchate) in May of 2010 (May 26-28).

Fifty-five bishops of the region attended the meeting. The Assembly convened at the Helmsley Park Lane Hotel in New York City where accommodations and arrangements were coordinated by the staff of the Archbishop. The Greek Orthodox Archdiocese, through the Leadership 100 grant to the Office of Inter-Orthodox, Ecumenical and Interfaith Relations, underwrote most of the expense, with other funds coming from a variety of Pan-Orthodox sources.

The Assembly gathered for its second annual meeting at the Chicago O’Hare Hilton, in Chicago, IL, May 25-27, 2011, under the chairmanship of His Eminence Archbishop Demetrios. There were 45 bishops in attendance, with the majority of the Canadian Bishops awaiting the separation of Canada into its own Assembly.

The Assembly heard reports from each of its thirteen com-mittees. Nearly all of the committees had either met prior to the Assembly meeting, or were able to meet while in Chicago. The Assembly expressed its desire to define more carefully its relationship to the agencies and endorsed-organizations which it inherited from SCOBA.

The Hierarchs decided that it was prudent for the Assembly to be incorporated as a legal entity, as this would bring the Assembly a number of benefits and would further its ability to act as a body. It therefore authorized the proper agents to move ahead with the work of incorporation.

In addition, the Assembly reaffirmed its petition of the previous year to the mother churches for the partition of the Assembly, by establishing Canada as a separate region, and joining Mexico and Central America to the region of South America.

The Assembly held its third annual meeting from September

157

10-12, 2012, in Chicago, Illinois. Forty-three bishops were in attendance. With the legal incorporation of the Assembly, one of the chief items on the agenda was the adoption of By-Laws for its governance, which were unanimously approved by the bishops.

Metropolitan Methodios of Boston, the chair of the Committee for Canonical Affairs, presented a proposal for a comprehensive directory of all Orthodox clergy in our region, in accordance with Article 6 of the Rules of Operation.

Archbishop Nicolae of the Romanian Orthodox Archdiocese in the Americas, the chair of the Committee for Canonical Regional Planning, presented the findings of his committee regarding the canonical organization of the Church in the United States.

The Assembly adopted a policy to govern its relationship with the former SCOBA agencies and endorsed-organizations as well as important guidelines governing the delegation of legal and financial authority within the Assembly. It was announced that an external audit would be conducted by the Assembly after the end of the calendar year.

On the second day of meetings, the eleventh anniversary of the terrorist attacks on the United States, the hierarchs gathered at Holy Resurrection Serbian Orthodox Cathedral in Chicago, where they prayed the liturgy together. Following the Liturgy, Archbishop Demetrios led all present in a memorial service for those who died in the aforementioned terrorist attacks as well as prayers for mercy for the survivors and the families of all those who perished that day.

What follows is the Message that came from the third meeting, which was subscribed to by all Hierarchs in attendance:

MESSAGE

To our beloved Orthodox Christian faithful throughout North and Central America:

You are the light of the world. (Matt. 5.14)

Beloved brothers and sisters in the Lord,

We, the members of the Assembly of Canonical Orthodox Bishops of North and Central America, gathered in Chicago for our third annual meeting of September 10-12, 2012, greet you with paternal love, as we offer glory and thanks to our Triune God.

Forty-three Hierarchs convened in the unity of our holy Orthodox faith, mindful of our responsibility to each other and to the Church as the Body of Christ. Some of our brother Hierarchs were absent due to personal illness or family loss. We recognize our calling to rightly teach the word of God’s truth as our foremost duty towards the Lord Jesus Christ and His holy Church.

We remember in prayer the recent falling asleep in the Lord of our brother and concelebrant, Metropolitan Constantine of Irinoupolis, First Bishop of the Ukrainian Orthodox Church of

the USA. May his memory be eternal!

We acknowledge the challenges that lie before us and understand our accountability to one another so that our com-mon ministry and witness may be blessed by God.

We reaffirm our commitment to the decisions and expectations of the Primates of the Orthodox Autocephalous Churches and the Pan-Orthodox Preconciliar Conferences in an effort to safeguard and deepen Orthodox unity, to promote com-mon pastoral action, to offer common witness in our region, and to overcome canonical anomalies.

Our unity was manifested in the celebration of the Divine Liturgy and the sharing of the Holy Eucharist on the occasion of the Feast of St. John the Forerunner (Old Style) as well as in joining our fellow Americans as we mourned the loss of thousands of innocent citizens 11 years ago on September 11, 2001, and prayed for the repose of their souls.

Among the items on the agenda was the work of the Assembly’s Secretariat, its 13 committees, and 14 agencies and endorsed organizations. We praise God for the positive spirit of cooperation that prevailed during the sessions of the Assembly and celebrate the considerable progress already achieved on many levels through the expanding activities of its committees.

In particular, discussion focused on the Assembly by-laws and the progress of the work by the Committee for Canonical Regional Planning. The last of these discussions constitutes the primary concern of the Assembly in its effort to enhance Orthodox cooperation, advance a common Orthodox witness and promote canonical normalization in this region. The Hierarchs spent the better part of the second session focus-ing – through presentations, deliberations and reports – on this paramount issue.

As we assemble in Chicago, we also take this opportunity to encourage all of you, the People of God, in a world exploited and polarized by greed, godlessness, and immorality. We call upon all Orthodox Christians to be faithful to their calling to be the light of the world.

We recognize the tremendous social pressures to conform to secular standards, but we exhort you to stand firm and hold fast to the traditions that you were taught (2 Thess. 2.15) so that your light is not hidden under a bushel but placed on a stand (Matt. 5.15) in order for all to see. Let our Orthopraxy attend our Orthodoxy. In this respect:

• We must safeguard the sacrament of marriage in accor-dance with God’s will for the sacred union between man and woman and the sanctity of family as the fundamental nucleus of a healthy society. In this regard, we emphasize regular family worship, particularly at Sunday liturgy.

• We must strive to eliminate the violence proliferated against innocents of every kind, particularly of women and the unborn. We call for responsibility by individuals, institutions and governments to ensure the welfare of every citizen.


158


• We must resist the wastefulness and greed that dominate our consumer society, confessing that our spiritual citizenship is in heaven (Phil. 3.20) in order that our witness be character-ized by the compassion and mercy as well as the generosity and philanthropy that distinguishes our God who loves humankind.

Finally, we pray for our oppressed and suffering brothers and sisters variously facing oppression or persecution in the ancient Patriarchates of Constantinople, Alexandria, Antioch, and Jerusalem, as well as in the Balkans and throughout the world. We grieve the loss of US Ambassador Christopher

Stevens and his staff in Libya. We condemn all forms of violence perpetrated in the name of religion and denounce all expressions of religious intolerance.

Now may the Lord of peace Himself grant you peace at all times in all ways. The grace of our Lord Jesus Christ be with you all. (2 Thess. 3.16,18)

EASTERN ORTHODOX COMMITTEE ON SCOUTING (EOCS)

The Eastern Orthodox Committee on Scouting (EOCS) was created in 1960 by the Standing Conference of Orthodox Bishops in the Americas (SCOBA). The mission of EOCS is:

• Support and conduct the mission of our Lord and His church via the scouting program;

• Recognize the individual youth member as our most important member;

• Provide support, programs, and recognition to the scouts and scouters of Eastern Orthodox faith whether in units in the Eastern Orthodox Churches, or regis-tered in units sponsored by other institutions, via the religious youth recognition, adult recognitions for volunteer scouters and clergy, retreats, camp-o-rees, associated events and activities;

• Provide support, guidance, programs, and consulta-tion to the Eastern Orthodox Churches that sponsor Scouting and are partners in the scouting program;

• Create, expand, enhance and project a presence of Eastern Orthodox Scouting in the Boy Scouts America, Girl Scouts USA, and Camp Fire Boys and Girls;

• The EOCS exists to complement and supplement the youth’s program and the unit’s program. The EOCS does not exist to direct or replace a unit’s program;

• Encourage the use of the Boy Scouts of America, Girls Scouts USA, and Camp Fire Boys and Girls programs as part of the youth ministry program of the Church and community;

• Develop and extend our Scouting network with our ministry partners;

• The EOCS is the officially recognized Eastern Orthodox religious committee for the Boy Scouts of America, Girl Scouts USA, and Camp Fire Boys and Girls programs.

The committee consists of several priests and adult volunteers. It acts as a liaison between the Eastern Orthodox Church and the Boy Scouts of America and the Girl Scouts of the U.S.A. The Eastern Orthodox Committee on Scouting (EOCS) publishes vari-ous forms of literature, honors and awards, promotes Orthodox Scouting, informs the Orthodox Clergy on the services of Scouting, and keeps those in Orthodox Scouting up-to-date on current progress. It also establishes procedures and coordinates the Orthodox Scouting program in America as well as being the official recognized representative for the Eastern Orthodox Churches by both the Boy & Girl Scouts nationally.

Orthodox Church-Scouting Relationship: The twelfth Boy Scout Law states, “A Scout is reverent, He is reverent to God, He is faithful in his religious duties and respects the convictions of others in matters of custom and religion.” Consequently, a religious program that allows the Scout to practice his/her religious beliefs should be included as a

regular part of the Scouting program if the Scouting unit is chartered to a religious organization. The Scoutmaster, Troop Leader, Scout Coordinator, and adult volunteers together with the priest should plan a religious program for the Scouts which includes prayers, retreats, and worship services.

Scouting in the Parish Life: Scouting has many objectives that are common with those of our Holy Orthodox Church. As a program devised especially for the formative years of our Orthodox youth, Scouting encourages a better Christian life; it aids in building character and developing wholesome habits and effective citizenship activities. The Scout motto “Be Prepared” implies not only physical and mental but also spiritual, moral preparedness. Scouting works hand and hand with the Church on all levels. A properly organized and supervised Scout program in a parish can do a great deal in keeping our youth close to the Church and its many varied, wholesome, character building activities; it trains boys and girls to be of service to God, country, and fellowmen – all of which constitutes a Christian upbringing. Finally, it trains our boys and girls not only how to be contributing citizens of tomorrow, but also participating members and leaders in our Holy Faith. For these reasons your national committee on Scouting urges all parish priests and interested laymen to learn more about Scouting and organize and sponsor an Orthodox Boy or Girl Scout troop wherever one does not now exist.

Religious Awards: The Eastern Orthodox Committee on Scouting supports our youth through an extensive Religious Awards program which is designed around a scout’s spiritual life. This gives the scout a chance to work closely with their spiritual Father to earn their award. The unique bond formed at this age is a stepping stone for the rest of their spiritual life.

Church and Doctors of the World-Greece to provide support for food package distribution to jobless parents struggling to feed their children, and access to medical care for fami-lies living in the poorest sections of Athens. A shipment of

more than $1.5 million in medical and surgical sup-plies was sent to replenish storerooms of hospi-tals in Athens, the island of Crete and mercy care clinics throughout the country.

IOCC expanded its relief efforts in the Middle East, delivering humanitarian aid to a growing number

of displaced and refugee Syrian families fleeing the escalating conflict in their country, as well as provid-ing emergency bedding, infant supplies and health care support to refugees who sought shelter in the neighboring countries of Jordan and Lebanon.

More than 60 U.S. Orthodox clergy and lay persons trained by IOCC in disaster preparedness and emergency manage-ment form the backbone of our Emergency Response Net-work. These frontliners carry the skills needed to deal with communities and parishioners in times of crisis, such as the devastating and expansive destruction caused by a series of tornadoes that swept America’s heartland. The desire to roll up their sleeves for those in need is powerful among Orthodox Christians in the U.S., and IOCC is expanding its resources to meet this increased interest among Orthodox Americans wanting a more active role in IOCC humanitar-ian efforts.

INTERNATIONAL ORTHODOX CHRISTIAN CHARITIES (IOCC)

Recognized as the official humanitarian aid agency of the Assembly of Canonical Orthodox Bishops in North and Central America, International Orthodox Christian Chari-ties (IOCC) responds in the spirit of Christ’s love, to of-fer emergency relief and development programs to those in need worldwide, without discrimination, and strengthen the capacity of the Orthodox Church to so respond. IOCC has delivered over $400 million in emergency relief and long-term development programs to families and communi-ties in 50 countries.

IOCC is a pan-Orthodox agency that works in cooperation with the Orthodox Church worldwide, as well as with local organizations and local government, to provide humanitar-ian aid to those affected by man-made and natural disas-ters. All assistance given by IOCC is provided solely on the basis of need without regard to creed, color or national origin.

As record drought and famine threatened the lives of more than 13 million people in the Horn of Africa, IOCC respond-ed with healthcare and nutrition support and assisted with improving sanitation conditions for the more than 40,000 famine survivors living in a refugee camp located on the Ethiopian border. IOCC also constructed a secondary school at the camp to ensure that more than 500 teenaged refugees could continue their education.

In the wake of Greece’s massive unemployment and severe economic crisis, IOCC partnered with the Greek Orthodox

As thousands of Greek fami-lies are left without medical

coverage, free clinics like this one are picking up the rising demand for healthcare. IOCC

is responding to the urgent public healthcare needs with

more than $1.3 million in medical supplies destined

for state-run hospitals and community healthcare clinics.

The Patriarch Athenagoras Orthodox Institute (PAOI) exists to educate, communicate, promote, and sustain the traditions, values, teachings, and culture of Orthodox Christianity.

The Institute was incorporated as an Affiliate Member of the Graduate Theological Union in Berkeley, California (www.gtu.edu) in 1981, under the leadership of (then) Bishop Anthony of San Francisco and The Very Reverend Dr. Leonidas Contos. In 1987 the Alexander G. Spanos Chair of Eastern Orthodox Christian Studies was established through a gener-ous donation by Alexander and Faye Spanos.

Today the PAOI continues its educational mission within the context of the GTU, an ecumenical and interfaith consor-tium of nine seminaries and ten academic centers, programs, and affiliates. The GTU is the largest partnership of seminar-ies and graduate schools in the USA, boasting the largest theological faculty in the country. The Institute offers several courses each semester treating aspects of the history and theology of the Orthodox Church. In 2005 the Institute inaugu-rated a Master of Arts in Orthodox Christian Studies program in conjunction with the GTU. The PAOI’s extensive collection of books is housed in the Flora Lamson Hewlett Library and is accessible to scholars through interlibrary loan.

The Institute ministers to the spiritual and social needs of undergraduate students at the University of California, Berkeley, and other colleges and universities in the area by

hosting weekly meetings of the Orthodox Campus Fellowship. Every Tuesday evening students gather at the PAOI for Divine Liturgy at 6 PM followed by a hearty dinner. The evening concludes with an engaging discussion of issues relevant to students’ lives, integrating Orthodox Christian perspectives.

The PAOI is an independent, inter-Orthodox center governed by a pan-Orthodox Board of Trustees representing the diversity of Orthodoxy in America: Albanian, Antiochian, Bulgarian, Car patho-Russian, Greek, OCA, Romanian, Serbian and Ukrainian. In recognition of the Institute’s particular vision and mission, the Holy and Sacred Synod of the Ecumenical Patriarchate of Constantinople, designated the Institute as “patriarchal”— the only center of learning in the United States with this distinction.

www.projectmexico.org Since 1988, Project Mexico has involved young people in the alleviation of suffering through building homes for Mexico’s poor in the Tijuana area. Over 10,000 volunteers from from across the United States and 11 foreign countries have helped Project Mexico build more than 240 homes for families who often live in dirt-floor shacks covered only with tin or card-board.

St. Innocent Orthodox Orphanage, an outgrowth of Project Mexico, opened its doors in 1996 to provide a loving and caring home to orphaned, abandoned and abused teenaged boys. An award-winning institution, it is the only facility dedicated to teenaged boys in Tijuana and one of only four in Mexico.

Project Mexico and St. Innocent Orphanage have been envi-sioned, designed, built and operated by the combined efforts of Orthodox from all jurisdictions. They operate under the blessings of the Assembly of Canonical Orthodox Bishops of North and Central America.

There is still a great deal of work to be done! Learn about the many ways you can be a part of this exciting ministry. Visit www.projectmexico.org or call 619.426.4610.

THE CALENDAR OF THE ORTHODOX CHURCH

Lewis Patsavos, Ph.D.Professor of Canon Law

Holy Cross School of Theology

ORTHODOX EASTER

The determination of the date of Easter is governed by a computation based on the vernal equinox and the phase of the moon. According to the ruling of the First Ecumenical Synod in 325, Easter Sunday should fall on the Sunday which follows the first full moon after the vernal equinox. If the full moon happens to fall on a Sunday, Easter is observed the following Sunday. The day taken to be the invariable date of the vernal equinox is March 21.

Herein lies the first difference in the determination of Easter between the Orthodox Church and the other Christian Churches. The Orthodox Church continues to base its calculations for the date of Easter on the Julian Calendar, which was in use at the time of the First Ecumenical Synod. As such, it does not take into consideration the number of days which have since then accrued due to the progressive inaccuracy of the Julian Calendar. In other words, a difference of 13 days exists between the accepted date for the vernal equinox then and now. In the West, this discrepancy was addressed in the 16th century through the adoption of the Gregorian Calendar, which adjusted the Julian Calendar still in use by all Christians at that time.

The other difference in the determination of Easter between the Orthodox and other Christian Churches concerns the date of Passover. Jews originally celebrated Passover on the first full moon following the vernal equinox. Christians, therefore, celebrated Easter on the first Sunday after the first full moon following the vernal equinox. After the destruction of Jerusalem in 70 A.D. and the other tragic events which gave rise to the dispersal of the Jews, Passover sometimes preceded the vernal equinox. This was occasioned by the dependence of the dispersed Jews upon local pagan calendars for the calculation of Passover. As a consequence, most Christians eventually ceased to regulate the observance of Easter by the Jewish Passover. Their purpose, of course, was to preserve the original practice of celebrating Easter following the vernal equinox.

PASTORAL GUIDLINES

The Sanctity of Human Life

A major and overarching concern of the Church arises with its commitment to the God-given sanc-tity of human life. Some of the developments of the biological manipulation of human life, though promising and amazing therapeutic achieve-ments, may also be understood as undermining respect for the integrity of human existence. Others may be seen as providing new means of healing human illness. Discerning the difference is the challenge the Church faces in developing its teaching on these newly appearing issues.

Human LifeThe Church’s teaching about human life is based on Holy Tradition, including the Scriptures as a primary resource and the ongoing teaching and interpretation of the Orthodox Faith. Life is a gift of God in the formation of the created world. All life is precious, but human life is uniquely cre-ated by God in the “image and likeness of God.” Human life as such deserves deep respect and individual human beings are to be treated in accordance with their inherent human dignity.

Thus, racism, unjust prejudicial treatment of men and women, genocide, forms of sexual exploita-tion, domestic violence, child abuse, rape, theft or destruction of private property, deceptions and deceit, environmental plunder and other such unethical behaviors violate the human dignity of others. Human life as a gift of God should be respected. Some specific issues are the follow-ing:

Donation of OrgansAlthough nothing in the Orthodox tradition requires the faithful to donate their organs to others, nevertheless, this practice may be consid-ered an act of love, and as such is encouraged. The decision to donate a duplicate organ, such as a kidney, while the donor is living, requires much consideration and should be made in con-sultation with medical professionals and one’s Spiritual Father. The donation of an organ from a deceased person is also an act of love that offers the recip ient a longer, fuller life. Such donations

are acceptable if the deceased donor had willed such action, or if surviving relatives permit it pro-viding that it was in harmony with the desires of the deceased. Such actions can be approved as an expression of love and the self-determination of the donor. In all cases, respect for the body of the donor should be maintained.

Organ transplants should never be commercial-ized nor coerced nor take place without proper consent, nor place in jeopardy the identity of the donor or recipient, through, for example, the use of animal organs. The death of the donor should never be hastened in order to harvest organs for transplantation to another person.

CremationBecause the Orthodox Faith affirms the funda-mental goodness of creation, it understands the body to be an integral part of the human person and the temple of the Holy Spirit, and expects the resurrection of the dead. The Church considers cremation to be the deliberate desecration and destruction of what God has made and ordained for us. The Church instead insists that the body be buried so that the natural physical process of decomposition may take place. The Church does not grant funerals, either in the sanctuary, or at the funeral home, or at any other place, to persons who have chosen to be cremated. Addi-tionally, memorial services with kolyva (boiled wheat) are not allowed in such instances, inas-much as the similarity between the “kernel of wheat” and the “body” has been intentionally destroyed.

Medical Developments and the ChurchWith high frequency, new developments in the area of the life sciences appear in our technologi-cally advanced culture. The Church welcomes efforts and innovations that contribute to the healing of human diseases. Yet, many of these advances raise moral questions. Some of the Church’s responses to these developments are based on older issues for which the Church has clear and unambiguous guidelines. Other responses are not so evident.

CHURCH POSITIONS REGARDING THE SANCTITY OF HUMAN LIFE

PASTORAL GUIDELINES

Thus, many of these developments pose challenges to Orthodox Christian spiritual concerns and moral values. In numerous cases, the Church is still in the process of clarifying its response. The following serve to indicate the general positions and direction of thought in the Orthodox Church:

Sexuality

The Orthodox Church recognizes marriage as the only moral and spiritually appropriate context for sexual relations. Thus, all other forms of sexual activity such as fornication, adultery, homosexuality, lesbianism, pornography, all forms of prostitution, and similar forms of behavior are sins and as such are inappropriate for the Orthodox Christian. Marriage is only conducted and recognized in the Orthodox Church as taking place between a man and a woman. Same sex marriages are a contradiction in terms. The Orthodox Church does not allow for samesex marriages.

Abortion

The Church from the very beginning of existence has sought to protect “the life in the womb” and has considered abortion as a form of murder in its theology and canons. Orthodox Christians are admonished not to encourage women to

have abortions, nor to assist in the committing of abortion. Those who perform abortions and those who seek them are committing an immoral deed, and are called to repentance.

Suicide

Suicide, the taking of one’s own life, is selfmurder and as such, a sin. More importantly, it may be evidence of a lack of faith in our loving, forgiving, sustaining God. If a person has committed suicide as a result of a belief that such an action is rationally or ethically defensible, the Orthodox Church denies that person a Church funeral, because such beliefs and actions separate a person from the community of faith. The Church shows compassion, however, on those who have taken their own life as a result of mental illness or severe emotional stress, when a condition of impaired rationality can be verified by a physician.

Autopsy

When a person dies for reasons that are uncertain, a qualified medical examiner may, with the permission of the next of kin, perform an autopsy to determine the cause of death. In some states, this is required by law. In all cases, however, the Orthodox Church expects that the body of the deceased be treated with respect and dignity.

PASTORAL GUIDELINES

WEDDINGS

For the union of a man and woman to be rec-ognized as sacramentally valid by the Orthodox Church, the following conditions must be met:1. The Sacrament of Matrimony must be cele-

brated by an Orthodox Priest of a canonical Orthodox jurisdiction, according to the litur-gical tradition of the Orthodox Church, in a canonical Orthodox Church, and with the authorization of the Archbishop or Metropoli-tan.

2. Before requesting permission from the Arch-bishop or his Metropolitan to perform the marriage, a Priest must verify that: a) neither of the parties in question is already married to another person, either in this country or elsewhere; b) the parties in question are not related to each other to a degree that would constitute an impediment; c) if either or both parties are widowed, they have presented the death certificate(s) of the deceased spouse(s); d) if either or both of the parties have been previously married in the Orthodox Church, they have obtained ecclesiastical as well as civil divorce(s); e) the party or parties who are members of a parish other than the one in which the marriage is to be performed have provided a certificate declaring them to be members in good standing with that parish for the current year; and f) a civil marriage license has been obtained from civil authori-ties.

3. No person may marry more than three times in the Church, with permission for a third mar-riage granted only with extreme oikonomia.

4. In cases involving the marriage of Orthodox and non-Orthodox Christians, the latter must have been baptized, in water, in the Name of the Father and the Son and the Holy Spirit. The Church cannot bless the marriage of an Orthodox Christian to a non-Christian.

5. The Sponsor (koumbaros or koumbara) must provide a current certificate of membership proving him or her to be an Orthodox Chris-tian in good standing with the Church. A person who does not belong to a parish, or who belongs to a parish under the jurisdiction

of a bishop who is not in communion with the Greek Orthodox Archdiocese, or who, if mar-ried, has not had his or her marriage blessed by the Orthodox Church, or, if divorced, has not received an ecclesiastical divorce, cannot be a sponsor. Non-Orthodox persons may be members of the wedding party, but may not exchange the rings or crowns.

Days When Marriage Is Not Permitted

Marriages are not performed on fast days or during fasting seasons or on the feasts of the Church, specifically: September 14 (Exaltation of the Holy Cross), December 13-25 (Nativity), January 5 and 6 (Theophany), Great Lent and Holy Week, Pascha (Easter), Pentecost, August 1-15 (Dormition Fast and Feast), and August 29 (Beheading of St. John the Baptist). Excep-tions can only be made with the permission of the respective hierarch.

Inter-Christian Marriages

It is a fact that, the more a couple has in com-mon, the more likely they are to live together in peace and concord. Shared faith and traditions spare couples and their children, as well as their extended families, many serious problems, and help to strengthen the bonds between them. Even so, the Orthodox Church will bless mar-riages between Orthodox and non-Orthodox partners, provided that:1. The non-Orthodox partner is a Christian who

has been baptized, in water, in the Name of the Father and the Son and the Holy Spirit; and

2. The couple should be willing to baptize their children in the Orthodox Church and raise and nurture them in accordance with the Orthodox Faith.

A baptized Orthodox Christian whose wedding has not been blessed by the Orthodox Church is no longer in good standing with the Church, and may not receive the Sacraments of the Church, including Holy Communion, or become a Sponsor of an Orthodox Marriage, Baptism or Chrismation.

A non-Orthodox Christian who marries an Orthodox Christian does not thereby become a

PASTORAL GUIDELINES

member of the Orthodox Church, and may not receive the Sacraments, including Holy Com-munion, or be buried by the Church, serve on the Parish Council, or vote in parish assemblies or elections. To participate in the Church’s life, one must be received into the Church by the Sacrament of Baptism or, in the case of persons baptized with water in the Holy Trinity, following a period of instruction, by Chrismation.

Inter-religious Marriages

Canonical and theological reasons preclude the Orthodox Church from performing the Sacra-ment of Marriage for couples where one partner is Orthodox and the other partner is a non-Chris-tian. As such, Orthodox Christians choosing to enter such marriages fall out of good standing with their Church and are unable to actively par-ticipate in the life of the Church. While this stance may seem confusing and rigid, it is guided by the Orthodox Church’s love and concern for its member’s religious and spiritual well-being.

Prohibited Marriages

The following types of relationships constitute impediments to marriage:1. Parents with their own children, grandchildren

or great-grandchildren. 2. Brothers-in-law and sisters-in-law.3. Uncles and aunts with nieces and nephews.

4. First cousins with each other.5. Foster parents with foster children or foster

children with the children of foster parents.6. Godparents with godchildren or godparents

with the parents of their godchildren.

DIVORCE

The parish priest must exert every effort to rec-oncile the couple and avert a divorce. However, should he fail to bring about a reconciliation, after a civil divorce has been obtained, he will transmit the petition of the party seeking the ecclesiasti-cal divorce, together with the decree of the civil divorce, to the Spiritual Court of the Archdiocesan District or Metropolis. The petition must include the names and surnames of the husband and wife, the wife’s surname prior to marriage, their addresses, the name of the priest who performed the wedding, and the date and place of the wed-ding. The petitioner must be a member of the parish through which he or she is petitioning for divorce. Orthodox Christians of the Greek Orthodox Archdiocese who have obtained a civil divorce but not an ecclesiastical divorce may not participate in any sacraments of the Church or serve on the Parish Council, Archdiocesan District Council, Metropolis Council or Archdiocesan Council until they have been granted a divorce by the Church.

PASTORAL GUIDELINES

BAPTISMS

A person who wishes to sponsor a candidate for Baptism or Chrismation must be an Orthodox Christian in good standing and a supporting member of an Orthodox parish. A person may not serve as a godparent if the Church has not blessed his or her marriage or, if civilly divorced, he or she has not been granted an ecclesiastical divorce, or for any other reason he or she is not in communion with the Orthodox Church.Baptisms may not be performed during Holy Week or on any of the Great Feastdays of the Lord.

FUNERALS

Funeral services are permitted on any day of the year, except for Sundays and Holy Friday, unless permission is granted by the Archbishop or Metropolitan.

MEMORIALS

Memorial services may not be chanted from the Saturday of Lazarus through the Sunday of Thomas, on any Feastday of the Lord or any Feastday of the Theotokos.

FASTING

Just as there are times for feasting, there are also times set aside for fasting. During these periods, certain foods are prohibited. These are, in order of frequency of prohibition, meat (includ-ing poultry), dairy products, fish, olive oil and wine. Fruits, vegetables, grains and shellfish are permitted throughout the year. Of course, the Orthodox Church never reduces the practice of fasting to a legalistic observance of dietary rules. Fasting, that is not accompanied by intensified prayer and acts of charity, inevitably becomes a source of pride. The Church also recognizes that not everyone can fast to the same degree, and assumes that individual Christians will observe the fast prescribed for them by their Spiritual Fathers.

The following are fasting days and seasons:

1. All Wednesdays and Fridays, except for those noted below;

2. The day before the Feast of Theophany (January 5);

3. Cheesefare Week (the last week before the Great Lent, during which meat and fish are prohibited, but dairy products are permitted even on Wednesday and Friday);

4. Great Lent (from Clean Monday through the Friday before Lazarus Saturday, olive oil and wine are permitted on weekends);

5. Great and Holy Week (note that Great and Holy Saturday is a day of strict fasting, during which the faithful abstain from olive oil and wine),

6. Holy Apostles’ Fast (from the Monday after All Saints’ Day through June 28, inclusive);

7. Fast for the Dormition of the Mother of God (August 1-14, excluding August 6, on which fish, wine and olive oil are permitted);

8. Beheading of St. John the Baptist (August 29),

9. Exaltation of the Holy Cross (September 14); and

10. Nativity Lent (November 15-December 24, although fish, wine and olive oil are permit-ted, except on Wednesdays and Fridays, until December 17).

The following are fasting days on which fish, wine and olive oil are permitted:1. The Feast of the Annunciation (March 25,

unless it falls outside the Great Lent, in which case all foods are permitted);

2. Palm Sunday;3. The Feast of the Transfiguration (August 6);

and4. The Feast of the Entry into the Temple of the

Mother of God (November 21).On the following days, all foods are permitted:

1. The first week of the Triodion, from the Sunday of the Publican and the Pharisee through the Sunday of the Prodigal Son, including Wednesday and Friday;

2. Diakainisimos (or Bright) Week, following the Sunday of Pascha,

3. The week following Pentecost; and

4. From the Feast of the Nativity of the Lord (December 25) through January 4.

POLICY ON SEXUAL MISCONDUCT BY CLERGYSexual misconduct by clergy has devastat-ing consequences, not only for the individuals involved, but for their communities as well. The Holy Eparchial Synod of the Greek Orthodox Archdiocese of America regards this matter with extreme seriousness, and has adapted a national policy on the investigation and resolution of complaints of sexual misconduct by clergy, as well as to promote healing for the victims of misconduct.

This policy includes a carefully planned pro-cedure designed to ensure that allegations of sexual misconduct by clergy are taken seri-ously, investigated thoroughly, and adjudicated justly. Responsibility for administering the process is assigned to the Chancellor of the Archdiocese. The Archdiocese also cooperates with applicable civil authorities when the charge involves a minor.

To assist in the investigation process, a tel ephone hotline (877) 554-3382 has been established to answer questions regarding the policy and to accept complaints relating

to sexual misconduct by clergy. All calls with questions or complaints will be taken seriously and allegations will be investigated fully and impartially. Callers can ask to speak with either a male or female volunteer, in either Greek or English. Calls may also be made directly to the Archdiocesan Chancellor’s Office, (212) 570-3513.

Persons staffing the hotline are all lay volun-teers and come from a variety of backgrounds including psychology, social work and human re sources. Hotline staffers attempt to return calls as quickly as possible, and generally within 48 hours.

The Church’s policy was developed by working groups that included hierarchs, clergy, lay lead-ers, lawyers and clinical and academic experts. The policy is also evaluated periodically by an advisory board.

The full text of the policy is available upon re quest from the Chancellor’s Office or online at www.goarch.org/archdiocese/documents.
