The Head of the Orthodox Church of Greece, Archbishop Christodoulos, sent invitations to other local orthodox Churches to participate in the festivities. During his missionary journeys, the holy apostle Paul visited Athens as well. He preached the Gospel to its citizens at the Areopagus. Today this site is one of the main sights in the capital of Greece.
