The Antiochian Orthodox Archdiocese of Australia actively supports communities through various charities and outreach programs.
These include St Raphael's Mission, providing aid to the homeless; the Antiochian Welfare Association, addressing poverty and hardship; and the Antiochian Youth Centre, nurturing faith and community in young people. Individual parishes also conduct local outreach programs.
You can support these initiatives by volunteering, donating, or partnering with an organization.
The Greek Orthodox community in the USA and Canada hosts festivals celebrating their faith, culture, and heritage. These events, like the Folk Dance and Choral Festival and the Greek Summerfest in Toronto, offer traditional food, music, dance, and fellowship. These festivals are a testament to the vibrancy and resilience of the community, strengthening faith and connecting people to their roots.
What a journey , what an experience. Fr Gabriel's quote sums it all: This new Chandelier changed the whole dynamic of our Parish!
We Thank him!
All over the Orthodox world, the Feast of her Agia Skepi is known
The Feast of the Blessed Virgin Mary, which is basically celebrated on October 1st.
(With decision of the Church of Greece was associated with the national holiday of October 28, for the
miraculous protection of the Nation during World War II. As known, with the old Calendar it is
celebrated on October 14).
Nothing inspires us more than the Orthodox Churches of the world. Every time we travel to these churches, we cannot help but feel awe and become, even if only for a little while, members of the local Orthodox communities. Faith, Hospitality, Community, Family... values that are the same and strong in all parts of the world, grow and develop our Orthodoxy, which continuously gains new members, proving clearly that it is the Religion of the Future.
We are "present" in the decoration of two more Holy Temples, Saint Michael in Los Angeles and Anastasis in Tucson. With our icons adorning the interiors of the Churches, we are proud to have had the opportunity to contribute to the preservation of Orthodox tradition and to support local communities in the United States. We hope that these Holy Temples will continue to be centers of spiritual life and social cohesion for Orthodox Christians in the area.
We warmly thank Father Timothy and Father Gabriel ... whom we now feel like friends for their help and, above all, for their trust!
Silversmithing in Ioannina has its roots in the depths of the centuries, but shows significant activity from the time of the Despotate of Epirus onwards. The uniqueness of this Artwork is mainly expressed by special construction techniques such as forged, blown or carved, wire or filigree and savat, techniques which give a three-dimensional form to every Artifact! ..and of course always made of solid Silver!
Our latest creation with the exact same technique is now traveling to Romania! When they saw this vigil Oil were excited!
It was a challenge for us ! Fr. George from St Nicholas San Fransisco had one request "Make it fit in the Arch" .

Many thanks to our friends from San Fransisco for their trust!
Ioannina is a picturesque City in North Greece. Tecnhicians from Ioannina are notorious for their exceptional Artwork in Church Artifacts.
The "Gianniotika" Church Artifacts distinct for their detailed carving are made exclusively from one material...Solid Silver!
This Artifacts are made in order to decorate Churches for many years ahead .
Its an honor for us to welcome them in our Collection!
The Wood Crafted Church Artifacts are always fascinating.
The Raw Material is surely an important factor , but always the deifference is being made by the Technician's devotion to final Result.
A big Thank You to the Greek Community of Ticino (Switzerland) that entrusted us the creation of the Candle Holder made from Solid Linden (Flamouri)
