From New York to Hellas here I come !!!
I will be leaving today for Athens and be there Saturday. On arrival since the stone fabrication facilities fabricating the Pantelic stone for St. Nicholas Church and National Shrine are near the airport I will go there directly, before heading to the Grande Bretagne Hotel, to check the progress on the stonework left to fabricate. I had been asked by John Catsimatidis and Fr. Alex to help in the construction of St. Nicholas when construction restarted and agreed pro Bono/ for free to do so. I will be checking also in particular on the Pendelic stone fabricated on the Church’s Dome at the top where the cross will sit. In the past for cost savings it was changed to precast concrete but I donated the funds for it to be Pandelis Marble as originally designed. I wanted the cross to sit on the stone from the same stone vein as the Parthenon.

Hellas !!
Very fond memories of heading to the Hellenic Republic two years ago today for a variety of missions from the 99th Anniversary AHEPA Supreme Convention in Athens, to checking on the St. Nicholas Greek Orthodox Church and National Shrine stonework (including the Dome Panelic Marble stonework that I had donated to the church), to the Trisagion Ceremony the East Mediterranean Business Culture Alliance/ EMBCA we organized for American Philhellenic Hellenic Revolution Heroes George Jarvis and James Williams (perhaps) buried in Ayios Ioannis in Argos.
