Dear Orthodox,
I take this opportunity such as now, when we first publish our website to write a special letter to you all. The St. Matthew Parish is in time of change, in which we have to look at how we go forward and particularly to ask for your help in making sure we understand your views.
Our common cause is to unite Orthodoxy locally first and then extend our Christian bonds further away. The prime function of our Parish so far was to preserve and cultivate the Orthodox Faith and Tradition, however the time has come to propagate our Faith and share our knowledge between us.
Technology now offers us many new opportunities to develop our communication, few of which we routinely use at work and at home, but which we have arguably not adopted fully in our Community. With the creation of this website we are now looking more closely of how we can bring more value to you, our Members.
On behalf of all our Parish Council members I would like to welcome you to this initiative, hoping that you will utilise the website and blog functions for the benefit of our community.
God bless you all.
Athanasios Kitsios
President of the St. Matthew Parish
