It is a pleasure and honor for me to celebrate with the Omogeneia, one more year, the Nativity of Christ and the New Year.

I would like to wholeheartedly wish to all of you Happy Holidays, personal health, happiness for your families and fulfillment of your dreams. I wish to congratulate you for your accomplishments in a rather difficult year that will soon be leaving us, thank you for the love and trust with which you embrace the General Consulate and promise you that in 2010 we will intensify, even more, our efforts to effectively respond to your expectations. Our common goal is to offer the best service to Hellenism and Orthodoxy with consistency, zeal and devotion.
