Order of Saint Andrew the Apostle, Archons of the Ecumenical Patriarchate
On November 6, 2019, the Archons of the Tampa Bay area will present a lecture by Dr. Elizabeth Prodromou speaking on a topic of pressing importance for all Orthodox Christians: “Existential Threats Confronting the Ecumenical Patriarchate: Why Americans Should Care.”
The event will be held at 7PM in Matheos Hall, Holy Trinity Greek Orthodox Church, 409 Old Coachman Road, Clearwater, Florida. Admission is free.
Dr. Prodromou is visiting associate professor of conflict resolution at the Fletcher School of Law and Diplomacy at Tufts University in Medford, Massachusetts.

Her current research focuses on the security and human rights implications of Christian sustainability in a religiously plural Middle East, as well as on Greece as a critical case study of how mixed migration flows are reshaping the religion-security nexus in Europe.
