At the end of September, His Grace Bishop Sevastianos made a Pastoral Visit on behalf of His Eminence Metropolitan Alexios to St. Nicholas Cathedral in Tarpon Springs, to welcome His Eminence Archbishop Nikitas, the newly enthroned Hierarch of Thyrateira & Great Britain, himself a native son of Tarpon Springs. In addition to this celebration, His Grace was also pleased to convene, with the blessings of His Eminence, the first meeting of the Greek School Teachers of the Tampa Bay Area. Improved methods of teaching, the efficacy of materials, and new ways to attract students young and old, were some of the subjects discussed at what was a very enthusiastic meeting in support of our Hellenic culture.
Finally, both His Eminence Archbishop Nikitas and His Grace were pleased to address the participants of the St. Nicholas Cathedral Women's Retreat, and the faithful of the Tampa Bay area.
