His Eminence Archbishop Elpidophoros and the Holy Eparchial Synod ask that every Church toll its bells in lamentation on Friday, July 24th. They call for every flag of every kind that is raised on the Church property be lowered to half-mast on this day. And they enjoin every Church in our Holy Archdiocese to chant the Akathist Hymn in the evening of this day, just as we chant it on the Fifth Friday of the Great and Holy Fast. Let us, in this time of grief and mourning, appeal to the Most Holy Theotokos and Ever-Virgin Mary. She is the “only Hope of the hopeless” (Ἡ τῶν ἀπελπισμένων μόνη Ἐλπίς), and as we chant to Her in the Akathist, “the Repository of the Wisdom of God, the Treasury of His Foreknowledge” (Σοφίας Θεοῦ Δοχεῖον, Προνοίας Αὐτοῦ Ταμεῖον, οἶκος P).

His Eminence Metropolitan Alexios has asked Metropolis of Atlanta clergy to speak on this important matter, after which each of our parish families might offer a Memorial Service after Divine Liturgy on Sunday July 19th, to honor those who lost their lives as a result of the invasion.
