While visiting Deputy Minister Konstantinidis, I reflected on my deep personal ties to Thessaloniki from my student years. As I lead a Greek American delegation, I do believe that our community will appreciate discovering Northern Greece's rich Byzantine heritage. pic.twitter.com/8Qy3fRoVue

We arrive at the Monastery of Philotheou, where righteous Elder Ephraim once presided in in love and faith.

Φτάσαμε στην Ι. Μ. Φιλοθέου, όπου κάποτε προεξήρχε, διαπνεόμενος από αγάπη πίστη ο Γέροντας Εφραίμ. Το προσκύνημα ενώνει τις μεγάλες μοναστικές παραδόσεις του Αγίου Όρους και της Αμερικής, εκεί όπου ο Γέροντας έσπειρε τις Ορθόδοξες παραδόσεις μας σε νέο πολιτισμικό έδαφος. pic.twitter.com/XPDmT42YZd
