On the day of the Lord's Ascension, the Metropolitan of Argyrokastro, Mr. Dimitrios, supported by the Metropolitan of Amantia, Mr. Nathanael, performed the Inauguration of the eponymous Church in Kakkavia.

Believers from the village, the wider region and even from Greece participated in the overwhelming and particularly moving ceremony of the consecration of the Holy Table, another Church - the fruit of the missionary perspective that the Archbishop of Tirana, Durres and all Albania, Mr. Anastasios opened and has been guiding for thirty years now. On the other hand, the initiative for the specific Holy Temple was started very early by him and his collaborators in the Argyrokastro Diocese, securing the plot, permits and studies.

The specific Holy Church was inaugurated not only on the day of the Feast it celebrates but also in the context of the 30th Anniversary of the reconstitution of the Orthodox Church in Albania, the election and enthronement of Archbishop Anastasios. It symbolizes both the new era that opened with the fall of the communist regime for the freedom of the Church and the fact that Kakkavia, borders in general are conventional concepts just especially in the area of Orthodoxy. The fathers of the group of the Professor of the historic Monastery of Panagia of Molyvdoskepastis (located right on the border of Greece and Albania), father Arsenio, the singers and other collaborators who contributed and helped in today's celebratory ceremonies are proof of this fact.

Students of the older classes of the Educational Schools of the "Breath of Love" Foundation together with teachers also participated with enthusiasm and enjoyed the great and unique blessing of the opening of the Orthodox Church and also of the High Priestly Sermon that followed for the Ascension of the Lord.

Ανήμερα της Αναλήψεως του Κυρίου ο Μητροπολίτης Αργυροκάστρου κ. Δημήτριος συμπαραστατούμενος απ’ τον Μητροπολίτη Αμαντίας κ. Ναθαναήλ, τέλεσε τα Εγκαίνια του φερώνυμου Ναού στην Κακκαβιά.

Πιστοί απ’ το χωριό, την ευρύτερη περιοχή και ακόμη από την Ελλάδα μετείχαν στην κατανυκτική και ιδιαίτερα συγκινητική τελετή του καθαγιασμού της Αγίας Τραπέζης, ενός ακόμη Ναού – καρπό της ιεραποστολικής προοπτικής που ο Αρχιεπίσκοπος Τιράνων, Δυρραχίου και πάσης Αλβανίας κ. κ. Αναστάσιος άνοιξε και καθοδηγεί τριάντα χρόνια τώρα. Εξ άλλου η πρωτοβουλία για το συγκεκριμένο Ιερό Ναό ξεκίνησε πολύ νωρίς απ’ τον ίδιο και τους συνεργάτες του στην Μητρόπολη Αργυροκάστρου, εξασφαλίζοντας το οικόπεδο, τις άδειες και τις μελέτες.

Ο συγκεκριμένος Ιερός Ναός εγκαινιάστηκε όχι μόνο ανήμερα της Εορτής που τιμάται αλλά και στα πλαίσια της 30ης Επετείου απ’ την ανασύσταση της Ορθοδόξου Εκκλησίας στην Αλβανία, την εκλογή κι ενθρόνιση δηλαδή του Αρχιεπισκόπου Αναστασίου. Συμβολίζει δε στο σημείο το οποίο βρίσκεται τόσο την νέα εποχή που άνοιξε με την πτώση του κομουνιστικού καθεστώτος για την ελευθερία της Εκκλησίας όσο και το γεγονός ότι η Κακκαβιά, τα σύνορα γενικότερα αποτελούν συμβατικές έννοιες απλά ειδικά μέσα στο χώρο της Ορθοδοξίας. Οι πατέρες της συνοδείας του Καθηγούμενου της ιστορικής Μονής της Παναγίας του Μολυβδοσκέπαστη (βρίσκεται αναλόγως πάνω ακριβώς στα σύνορα Ελλάδας και Αλβανίας), πατρός Αρσενίου, οι ψάλτες και άλλοι συνεργάτες που συνέβαλαν και βοήθησαν στις σημερινές εορταστικές τελετές εξ άλλου αποτελούν απόδειξη του γεγονότος αυτού.

Μαθητές των μεγαλυτέρων τάξεων των Εκπαιδευτηρίων του Ιδρύματος «Πνοή Αγάπης» μαζί με εκπαιδευτικούς συμμετείχαν επίσης με κατάνυξη και χάρηκαν τη σπουδαία και μοναδική ευλογία των εγκαινίων Ορθοδόξου Ναού αλλά και του Αρχιερατικού Συλλείτουργου που ακολούθησε για την Ανάληψη του Κυρίου.



Εγκαίνια του Ι. Ναού της Αναλήψεως Κυρίου στην Κακκαβιά

Në ditën e Ngjitjes së Zotit, Mitropoliti i Argjirokastrës, z. Dimitrios, i mbështetur nga Mitropoliti i Amantias, z. Nathanael, bëri përurimin e kishës me të njëjtin emër në Kakkavia.

Besimtarë nga fshati, nga rajoni më i gjerë, madje edhe nga Greqia morën pjesë në ceremoninë dërrmuese dhe veçanërisht prekëse të shenjtërimit të Tryezës së Shenjtë, një kishë tjetër – fryt i këndvështrimit misionar që kryepeshkopi i Tiranës, Durrësit dhe gjithë Shqipërisë z. Anastasi u hap dhe ka tridhjetë vjet që drejton. Nga ana tjetër, nisma për tempullin e shenjtë specifik filloi shumë herët nga ai dhe bashkëpunëtorët e tij në Dioqezën e Argjirokastrës, duke siguruar parcelën, lejet dhe studimet.

Kisha e Shenjtë specifike u përurua jo vetëm në ditën e festës që kremton, por edhe në kuadër të 30-vjetorit të rikonstituimit të Kishës Ortodokse në Shqipëri, zgjedhjes dhe fronëzimit të Kryepeshkopit Anastas. Simbolizon si epokën e re që u hap me rënien e regjimit komunist për lirinë e kishës, ashtu edhe faktin që Kakkavia, kufijtë në përgjithësi janë koncepte konvencionale veçanërisht në fushën e Ortodoksisë. Dëshmi e këtij fakti janë murgjit e Manastirit historik të Panagisë së Molyvdoskepastis (që ndodhet pikërisht në kufirin mes Greqisë dhe Shqipërisë), babai Arsenio, këngëtarët dhe bashkëpunëtorët e tjerë që kontribuan dhe ndihmuan në ceremonitë e sotme festive.

Nxënës të klasave më të vjetra të shkollave arsimore të Fondacionit "Fryma e Dashurisë" së bashku me mësuesit morën pjesë me entuziazëm dhe shijuan bekimin e madh e të papërsëritshëm të hapjes së Kishës Ortodokse dhe gjithashtu të Predikimit të Kryepriftit që pasoi për Ngjitje. të Zotit.

Την 1η Σεπτεμβρίου, αρχή του Εκκλησιαστικού και Σχολικού έτους, οι εκπαιδευτικοί των Εκπαιδευτηρίων της Ι. Μ. Αργυροκάστρου συγκεντρώθηκαν στον Καθεδρικό Ναό της Αναστάσεως του Κυρίου, για να συμμετάσχουν στη Θεία Λειτουργία, προεξάρχοντος του Σεβασμιώτατου Μητροπολίτη Αργυροκάστρου κ. Δημητρίου. 
Η ευλογημένη αυτή παράδοση, που από χρόνων πλέον έχει καθιερωθεί, αποτελεί μια εξαιρετική δυνατότητα κοινωνίας, ενότητας και ελπίδας, ώστε η αρχή του πολυσήμαντου και ευθυνοφόρου εκπαιδευτικού έργου να γίνει με την ευλογία του Θεού και τη συναίσθηση της δικής Του παρουσίας. 
Έπειτα, οι εκπαιδευτικοί είχαν την ευκαιρία στους χώρους του Εννιάχρονου σχολείου να συναντηθούν κατά ομάδες και να λάβουν τις πατρικές ευχές και νουθεσίες του Μητροπολίτη κ. Δημητρίου, και δι’ αυτού την ευλογία του Αρχιεπισκόπου μας κ.κ. Αναστασίου.

Më 1 shtator, fillimi i vitit kishtar dhe shkollor, mësuesit e shkollave të I. M. Argjirokastrit u mblodhën në Katedralen e Ngjalljes së Zotit, për të marrë pjesë në Liturgjinë Hyjnore, të kryesuar nga Hirësia e Tij Mitropoliti i Argjirokastrës Dimitrios.
Kjo traditë e bekuar, e krijuar prej vitesh, është një mundësi e shkëlqyer për shoqëri, bashkim dhe shpresë, që fillimi i punës së rëndësishme dhe të përgjegjshme arsimore të bëhet me bekimin e Zotit dhe me vetëdijen e pranisë së Tij.

Më pas, mësuesit patën mundësinë në ambientet e shkollës nëntëvjeçare të takohen në grup dhe të marrin urimet dhe këshillat atërore të Mitropolitit Z. Dimitrios, e për rrjedhojë bekimin e Kryepeshkopit tonë z. Anastasi.

Urojmë që viti i ri shkollor të jetë i frytshëm dhe gjithmonë krijues!

Beginning of church and school year

At the end of the solemn synodical Divine Liturgy at the Cathedral of the Resurrection of Christ, on Tuesday, August 2, 2022, on the occasion of the 30th anniversary of the enthronement of the Archbishop of Tirana, Durrës and all Albania, Mr. Anastasios, referring to the amazing size and importance of of the work of the Archbishop, the Metropolitan of Koritsas, Mr. Ioannis emphasized, among other things: "your best contribution is the spiritual background, on which your efforts were based: the message of the Gospel that you conveyed, the hope, the forgiveness, the respect for every human face".

As is well known, from 1944 to 1967 the Orthodox Autocephalous Church of Albania was tested by atheistic persecution, in the same way it was manifested in other countries. From 1967 to 1990, the country's Constitution banned all religious expression, imposing total persecution, which completely disintegrated the local Church. In July 1991, the then Bishop, later Metropolitan, Androusis Mr. Anastasios, Professor of the University of Athens, arrived in Albania as Patriarchal Exarch of the Ecumenical Patriarchate. On June 24, 1992, at the request of the Orthodox of Albania, he was elected by the Ecumenical Patriarchate as Archbishop of Tirana, Durrës and all Albania and was enthroned on August 2, 1992. In the three decades that have passed, the Orthodox Autocephalous Church of Albania has been completely reconstructed and developed in all sectors.

The Archbishop Mr. Anastasios, after sending glory and thanks to God for the 30-year journey, together with his valuable collaborators, amidst various difficulties, sorrows, impasses and pain, but also countless blessings of God, reminded that "Clergy and people of the Church of Albania gratefully remember the initiative of the Ecumenical Patriarchate and the distinction of the competent patriarchal committee, for the reconstitution of our local Church, and with genuine respect and sincere love they bind themselves in favor of the A.Th.P. of the Ecumenical Patriarch, Mr. Bartholomew".

After the doxological atmosphere of the Divine Liturgy, in which the members of the Holy Synod, clergy from all the Holy Metropolises, the two choirs of the Cathedral and a large number of churchgoers, despite the working day, participated in the modern Cultural Center - part of the Cathedral Complex and of the Synodal Building - the Clergy and Popular Assembly. As provided by the Statute of the Church of Albania, the Assembly is attended by "the members of the Holy Synod, the members of the Clergy-Lay Ecclesiastical Council, two representatives of each Holy Monastery and twenty clergy and twenty-four lay people, for an appropriate representation of men, women and young people , from the Archdiocese and the Metropolises".

Going through the work of the Clergy, His Beatitude Archbishop Anastasios underlined the prayer of the Apostle Paul as a compass for the continuation of the Church's course: "walk worthily of the Lord in all good works bearing fruit and increasing in the knowledge of God" Col. . 1, 9).







30 years of creative effort. The reconstruction of a broken local church.

Στο τέλος της πανηγυρικής συνοδικής Θείας Λειτουργίας στον Καθεδρικό Ναό της Αναστάσεως του Χριστού, την Τρίτη 2 Αυγούστου 2022, με την ευκαιρία της 30ης επετείου από την ενθρόνιση του Αρχιεπισκόπου Τιράνων, Δυρραχίου και πάσης Αλβανίας κ. Αναστασίου, αναφερόμενος στο εκπληκτκό μέγεθος και στη σημασία του έργου του Αρχιεπισκόπου, ο   Μητροπολίτης Κορυτσάς κ. Ιωάννης μεταξύ άλλων τόνισε: «η καλύτερη συμβολή σας είναι το πνευματικό υπόβαθρο, στο οποίο στηρίχθηκαν οι προσπάθειές σας: το  μήνυμα του Ευαγγελίου που μεταφέρατε, η ελπίδα, η συγγνώμη, ο σεβασμός προς το κάθε ανθρώπινο πρόσωπο».

 Όπως είναι γνωστό, από το 1944 έως το 1967 η Ορθόδοξος Αυτοκέφαλος Εκκλησία της Αλβανίας δοκιμάστηκε από τον αθεϊστικό διωγμό, με τον τρόπο που εκδηλώθηκε και σε άλλες χώρες. Από το 1967 έως το 1990,  το Σύνταγμα της χώρας απαγόρευσε κάθε θρησκευτική έκφραση, επιβάλλοντας ολοκληρωτικό διωγμό, που  διέλυσε ολοσχερώς την τοπική Εκκλησία. Τον Ιούλιο 1991 έφθασε στην Αλβανία ως Πατριαρχικός Έξαρχος του Οικουμενικού Πατριαρχείου ο τότε Επίσκοπος, αργότερα Μητροπολίτης, Ανδρούσης κ. Αναστάσιος, Καθηγητής του Πανεπιστημίου Αθηνών. Στις 24 Ιούνιου 1992, κατόπιν αιτήματος των Ορθοδόξων της Αλβανίας, εξελέγη από το Οικουμενικό Πατριαρχείο Αρχιεπίσκοπος Τιράνων, Δυρραχίου και πάσης Αλβανίας και ενθρονίστηκε στις 2 Αυγούστου 1992. Στις τρεις δεκαετίες που συμπληρώθηκαν, η Ορθόδοξος Αυτοκέφαλος Εκκλησία τής Αλβανίας ανασυγκροτήθηκε πλήρως και αναπτύχθηκε σε όλους τους τομείς.

Ο Αρχιεπίσκοπος κ. Αναστάσιος, αφού ανέπεμψε δόξα και ευχαριστία στον Θεό για την πορεία 30 χρόνων, μαζί με τους πολύτιμους συνεργάτες του, μέσα σε ποικίλες δυσκολίες, θλίψεις, αδιέξοδα και  πόνο, αλλά και αναρίθμητες ευλογίες του Θεού, υπενθύμισε ότι «Κλήρος και λαός της Εκκλησίας της Αλβανίας ευγνωμόνως ενθυμούνται την πρωτοβουλία του Οικουμενικού Πατριαρχείου και τη διάκριση της αρμόδιας πατριαρχικής επιτροπής, για την ανασύσταση της τοπικής μας Εκκλησίας και με ανυπόκριτο σεβασμό και ειλικρινή αγάπη δέονται υπέρ της Α.Θ.Π. του Οικουμενικού Πατριάχου κ.κ. Βαρθολομαίου».

**
 Μετά τη δοξολογική ατμόσφαιρα της θείας Λειτουργίας, όπου συμμετείχαν τα μέλη της Ιεράς Συνόδου, κληρικοί από όλες τις Ιερές Μητροπόλεις, οι δύο χορωδίες του Καθεδρικού Ναού και πλήθος εκκλησιάσματος, παρά την εργάσιμη ημέρα, ακολούθησε στο σύγχρονο Πολιτιστικό Κέντρο- μέρος του Συγκροτήματος του Καθεδρικού Ναού και του Συνοδικού Κτηρίου- η Κληρικολαϊκή Συνέλευση. Όπως προβλέπεται από το Καταστατικό της Εκκλησίας της Αλβανίας, στη Συνέλευση συμμετέχουν «τά μέλη τῆς Ἱερᾶς Συνόδου, τά μέλη τοῦ Κληρικολαϊκοῦ Ἐκκλησιαστικοῦ Συμβουλίου, ἀνά δύο ἐκπρόσωποι ἑκάστης Ἱερᾶς Μονῆς καί ἀνά εἴκοσι κληρικοί καί εἴκοσι τέσσαρες λαϊκοί, διά καταλλήλου ἐκπροσωπήσεως ἀνδρῶν, γυναικῶν καί νέων, ἐκ τῆς Ἀρχιεπισκοπῆς καί τῶν Μητροπόλεων».

Στη διάρκεια των εργασιών έγινε συνοπτικός  απολογισμός του πολύπτυχου εκκλησιαστικού έργου που έχει συντελεστεί  από τους υπευθύνους κληρικούς ή λαίκούς κάθε τομέα.

Περαίνοντας τις εργασίες της Κληρικολαϊκής, ο Μακαριώτατος Αρχιεπίσκοπος κ. Αναστάσιος  υπογράμμισε τη δέηση του Απ. Παύλου ως πυξίδα για τη συνέχιση της πορείας της Εκκλησίας: « περιπατῆσαι ἀξίως τοῦ κυρίου εἰς πᾶσαν ἀρεσκείαν ἐν παντὶ ἔργῳ ἀγαθῷ καρποφοροῦντες καὶ αὐξανόμενοι τῇ ἐπιγνώσει τοῦ Θεοῦ» Κολ. 1, 9).

30 Χρόνια δημιουργικής προσπάθειας. Η ανασυγκρότηση μίας διαλυμένης τοπικής εκκλησίας.

Në përfundim të Liturgjisë Hyjnore solemne sinodikale në Katedralen e Ngjalljes së Krishtit, të martën, më 2 gusht 2022, me rastin e 30-vjetorit të kurorëzimit të Kryepeshkopit të Tiranës, Durrësit dhe gjithë Shqipërisë, z. Anastas. , duke iu referuar përmasave dhe rëndësisë mahnitëse të veprës së Kryepiskopit, Mitropolitit të Koricës z. Joani, ndër të tjera theksoi: “Kontributi juaj më i mirë është sfondi shpirtëror, mbi të cilin u mbështetën përpjekjet tuaja: mesazhi i Ungjillin që përcove, shpresën, faljen, respektin për çdo fytyrë njerëzore”.

Siç dihet, nga viti 1944 deri në vitin 1967 Kisha Ortodokse Autoqefale e Shqipërisë u sprovua nga persekutimi ateist, në të njëjtën mënyrë u shfaq edhe në vende të tjera. Nga viti 1967 deri në vitin 1990, Kushtetuta e vendit ndaloi çdo shprehje fetare, duke imponuar persekutim total, i cili e shpërbëu plotësisht Kishën vendase. Në korrik të vitit 1991, Peshkopi i atëhershëm, më vonë Mitropoliti, Androusis Z. Anastasios, Profesor i Universitetit të Athinës, mbërriti në Shqipëri si Eksark Patriarkal i Patriarkanës Ekumenike. Më 24 qershor 1992, me kërkesë të ortodoksëve të Shqipërisë, zgjidhet nga Patriarkana Ekumenike Kryepeshkop i Tiranës, Durrësit dhe i gjithë Shqipërisë dhe u fronzua më 2 gusht 1992. Në tre dekadat që kanë kaluar, Ortodoksët Kisha Autoqefale e Shqipërisë është rikonstruktuar dhe zhvilluar tërësisht në të gjithë sektorët.

Kryepeshkopi z. Anastas, pasi i dërgoi lavdi dhe falënderime Zotit për rrugëtimin 30-vjeçar, së bashku me bashkëpunëtorët e tij të vyer, mes vështirësive, pikëllimeve, ngërçeve e dhimbjeve të ndryshme, por edhe bekimeve të panumërta të Zotit, kujtoi se “Kleri dhe populli i Kisha e Shqipërisë kujton me mirënjohje nismën e Patriarkanës Ekumenike dhe dallimin e komitetit kompetent patriarkal, për rikonstituimin e Kishës sonë vendase dhe me respekt të sinqertë dhe dashuri të sinqertë lidhet në favor të A.Th.P. të Patriarkut Ekumenik, z. Bartolomeu".

Pas atmosferës doksologjike të Liturgjisë Hyjnore, në të cilën anëtarët e Sinodit të Shenjtë, klerikë nga të gjitha Mitropolet e Shenjta, dy koret e Katedrales dhe një numër i madh besimtarësh, pavarësisht ditës së punës, morën pjesë në Qendrën moderne kulturore - pjesë e Kompleksit të Katedrales dhe e Ndërtesës Sinodalale - Kuvendit të Klerit dhe Popullit. Siç parashikohet nga Statuti i Kishës së Shqipërisë, në Kuvend marrin pjesë “anëtarët e Sinodit të Shenjtë, anëtarët e Këshillit Kishtar Kleriko-laikë, dy përfaqësues të çdo Manastiri të Shenjtë dhe njëzet klerikë dhe njëzet e katër laikë, për një përfaqësim të duhur të burrave, grave dhe të rinjve, nga Kryepeshkopata dhe Mitropolet”.

Gjatë punës u bë një rrëfim i shkurtër për punën kishtare të shumëanshme që është kryer nga klerikët përgjegjës apo laikët e çdo sektori.

Duke kaluar në veprën e Klerit, Fortlumturia e Tij Kryepeshkopi Anastas nënvizoi lutjen e Apostullit Pal si busull për vazhdimin e rrugës së Kishës: “Ecni denjësisht për Zotin në të gjitha veprat e mira, duke dhënë fryt dhe duke u rritur në njohjen e Zotit”. Kol. 1, 9).








30 vjet përpjekje krijuese. Rindërtimi i një kishe lokale të thyer.

30 years of creative effort. The reconstruction of a broken local church.

In an atmosphere of excitement and joy, the girls' (July 4-9) and boys' (July 11-16) camp periods took place this year, after a two-year interruption due to the pandemic, at the camps of the Holy Metropolis of Argyrokastro in Glykomili, Dropolis.

We thank the people who are inspired by the love of Christ and offer themselves and offer to benefit our children. Our Archbishop of Albania Mr. Anastasios and our Metropolitan of Argyrokastro Mr. Dimitrios, who founded and continue to support spiritually and financially this wonderful project. Many thanks to sister Maria, who made sure everything was neat, beautiful and clean, perfectly coordinating the ladies in the kitchen.

Finally, but not least in terms of importance, we would like to thank our team leaders, these wonderful young people, teachers, students and students of our Church's high schools, who with their selfless contribution and creative enthusiasm, prove to be invaluable the truth emphasized by our Archbishop that "young people are not the future, but the dynamic present"!

Many thanks to the parents for their excellent cooperation! Happy Summer!

Μέσα σε κλίμα ενθουσιασμού και χαράς πραγματοποιήθηκαν φέτος ύστερα από δύο χρόνια διακοπής λόγω πανδημίας, οι κατασκηνωτικές περιοδοι των κοριτσιών (4-9 Ιουλίου) και των αγοριών (11-16 Ιουλίου), στις κατασκηνώσεις της Ιεράς Μητροπόλεως Αργυροκάστρου στο Γλυκομίλι της Δρόπολης.

Ευχαριστούμε τους ανθρώπους που εμπνέονται απο την αγάπη του Χριστού και προσφέρονται και προσφέρουν για να ωφεληθούν τα παιδιά μας. Τον Αρχιεπίσκοπό μας Αλβανίας κ. Αναστάσιο και τον Μητροπολίτη μας Αργυροκάστρου κ. Δημήτριο, που ίδρυσαν και συνεχίζουν να στηρίζουν πνευματικά και οικονομικά αυτό το θεάρεστο έργο. Ευχαριστίες θερμές στην αδερφή Μαρία, που φρόντισε ώστε όλα να είναι τακτοποιημένα, όμορφα και καθαρά, συντονίζοντας άψογα τις κυρίες της κουζίνας.

Τέλος, όχι όμως ως προς την σημασία, θα θέλαμε να ευχαριστήσουμε τους ομαδάρχες και τις ομαδάρχισσες μας, αυτούς τους υπέροχους νέους ανθρώπους, εκπαιδευτικούς, φοιτητές και μαθητές των Λυκείων της Εκκλησίας μας, που με την ανιδιοτελή προσφορά και τον δημιουργικό τους ενθουσιασμό, αποδεικνύουν περίτρανα την αλήθεια που τονίζει ο Αρχιεπίσκοπός μας πως “οι νέοι δεν είναι το μέλλον, αλλά το δυναμικό παρόν”!

Ευχαριστούμε πολύ και τους γονείς για την άψογη συνεργασία! Καλό Καλοκαίρι!

In an atmosphere of excitement and joy, this year, after a two-year interruption due to the pandemic, the girls' (July 4-9) and boys' (July 11-16) camp seasons took place at the camps of the Holy Metropolis of Argyrokastro in Glykomili, Dropolis.

We thank the people who are inspired by the love of Christ and offer themselves and offer to benefit our children. Our Archbishop of Albania Mr. Anastasios and our Metropolitan of Argyrokastro Mr. Dimitrios, who founded and continue to support spiritually and financially this wonderful project. Many thanks to sister Maria, who made sure everything was neat, beautiful and clean, perfectly coordinating the ladies in the kitchen.

Finally, but not least in terms of importance, we would like to thank our team leaders, these wonderful young people, teachers, students and students of our Church's high schools, who with their selfless contribution and creative enthusiasm, prove to be invaluable the truth emphasized by our Archbishop that "young people are not the future, but the dynamic present"!

Many thanks to the parents for their perfect cooperation! Happy Summer!

Μέσα σε κλίμα ενθουσιασμού και χαράς πραγματοποιήθηκαν φέτος ύστερα από δύο χρόνια διακοπής λόγω πανδημίας, οι κατασκηνωτικές περίοδοι των κοριτσιών (4-9 Ιουλίου) και των αγοριών (11-16 Ιουλίου), στις κατασκηνώσεις της Ιεράς Μητροπόλεως Αργυροκάστρου στο Γλυκομίλι της Δρόπολης.

Ευχαριστούμε τους ανθρώπους που εμπνέονται απο την αγάπη του Χριστού και προσφέρονται και προσφέρουν για να ωφεληθούν τα παιδιά μας. Τον Αρχιεπίσκοπό μας Αλβανίας κ. Αναστάσιο και τον Μητροπολίτη μας Αργυροκάστρου κ. Δημήτριο, που ίδρυσαν και συνεχίζουν να στηρίζουν πνευματικά και οικονομικά αυτό το θεάρεστο έργο. Ευχαριστίες θερμές στην αδερφή Μαρία, που φρόντισε ώστε όλα να είναι τακτοποιημένα, όμορφα και καθαρά, συντονίζοντας άψογα τις κυρίες της κουζίνας.
  
Τέλος, όχι όμως ως προς την σημασία, θα θέλαμε να ευχαριστήσουμε τους ομαδάρχες και τις ομαδάρχισσες μας, αυτούς τους υπέροχους νέους ανθρώπους, εκπαιδευτικούς, φοιτητές και μαθητές των Λυκείων της Εκκλησίας μας, που με την ανιδιοτελή προσφορά και τον δημιουργικό τους ενθουσιασμό, αποδεικνύουν περίτρανα την αλήθεια που τονίζει ο Αρχιεπίσκοπός μας πως “οι νέοι δεν είναι το μέλλον, αλλά το δυναμικό παρόν”!

Ευχαριστούμε πολυ και τους γονείς για την άψογη συνεργασία! Καλό Καλοκαίρι!

Në një atmosferë emocioni dhe gëzimi, këtë vit, pas një ndërprerjeje dyvjeçare për shkak të pandemisë, u zhvillua sezoni i kampeve të vajzave (4-9 korrik) dhe djemve (11-16 korrik) në kampet e Shenjtit. Mitropolia e Argjirokastrës në Glykomili, Dropolis.

Girls' camp season (Glykomili 4-9.07.2022)

Today's Sunday (5.06.2022) was a special day for the schools of I.M. Argyrokastro! We had the opportunity to enjoy a meal together with all the teachers from all the schools of our Diocese. We were hosted for this purpose by the "Anthos to Amaranton" Boarding School in Vouliarates.

Apart from the rich hospitality, for which we are very grateful, the warm atmosphere and the warm words heard about the work being done in our schools filled us with enthusiasm and thus we renewed our struggle for the next year. Of course, the table was blessed by our Most Reverend Metropolitan Mr. Dimitrios, who with great interest and love asked the directors and teachers about this year.

We wish everyone a restful summer and a good start to the new school year!

Η σημερινή Κυριακή (5.06.2022) ήταν μια ξεχωριστή ημέρα για τα εκπαιδευτήρια της Ι.Μ. Αργυροκάστρου! Είχαμε την ευκαιρία να απολαύσουμε ένα γεύμα μαζί με όλους τους εκπαιδευτικούς από όλα τα σχολεία της Μητρόπολής μας. Μας φιλοξένησε για αυτόν τον σκοπό το Οικοτροφείο “Άνθος το Αμάραντον” στους Βουλιαράτες.
    Πέρα από την πλούσια φιλοξενία, για την οποία ευχαριστούμε πολύ, η ζεστή ατμόσφαιρα και τα θερμά λόγια που ακούστηκαν για το έργο που γίνεται στα σχολεία μας μάς γέμισαν με ενθουσιασμό και έτσι ανανεώσαμε τον αγώνα μας για την επόμενη χρονιά. Φυσικά το τραπέζι ευλόγησε ο Σεβασμιώτατος Μητροπολίτης μας κ.κ. Δημήτριος, ο οποίος με πολύ ενδιαφέρον κι αγάπη ρώτησε τους διευθυντές και τους εκπαιδευτικούς για τη φετινή χρονιά.    
        Ευχόμαστε σε όλους ένα ξεκούραστο καλοκαίρι και καλή αντάμωση με τη νέα σχολική χρονιά!

E diela e sotme (5.06.2022) ishte një ditë e veçantë për shkollat ​​e I.M. Argjirokastro! Ne patëm rastin të shijojmë një vakt së bashku me të gjithë mësuesit nga të gjitha shkollat ​​e Dioqezës sonë. Për këtë qëllim na priti Konvikti "Anthos to Amaranton" në Vouliarates. Ju urojmë të gjithëve një verë të qetë dhe një fillim të mbarë të vitit të ri shkollor!

Përveç mikpritjes së pasur, për të cilën jemi shumë mirënjohës, atmosfera e ngrohtë dhe fjalët e ngrohta të dëgjuara për punën që po bëhet në shkollat tona na mbushën me entuziazëm dhe kështu ripërtëritëm luftën tonë për vitin e ardhshëm. Natyrisht, sofrën e bekoi Mitropoliti ynë i Nderuar z. Dimitrios, i cili me shumë interes dhe dashuri pyeti drejtorët dhe mësuesit për këtë vit.

Ju urojmë të gjithëve një verë të qetë dhe një fillim të mbarë të vitit të ri shkollor!
