CHARLOTTE, N.C. – His
Eminence Archbishop Elpidophoros of America together with Metropolitan
Alexios of Atlanta and the Greek Orthodox Community of Charlotte
welcomed last night, Tue., Jan. 28, 2020, His Beatitude Archbishop
Chrysostomos II of Cyprus, who is visiting the United States for medical
reasons.
Following the airport welcome, the faithful of Charlotte received the
visiting Hierarch to the Greek Orthodox Cathedral of the Holy Trinity
where Archbishop Chrysostomos presided over a Service of Doxology with
more than 500 people in attendance. He gave his blessing to all at the
end of the service and attended a welcoming dinner sponsored by the
Archons of the area.

Elpidophoros, Metropolitan Alexios and all the clergy and laity in
attendance for their love and prayers and said he would have preferred
to visit under different circumstances rather than for health reasons
