Beloved Brothers and Sisters in Christ,

The double celebration of the Feast of the Annunciation and Greek Independence Day always has special meaning for us as Orthodox Christians and Greek Americans. At its heart is our belief that our loving God “became flesh and dwelt among us” (John 1:14) and through this mystery, our deification, our theosis, has been made possible. As the Doxastikon for the Feast of the Annunciation states, “Now God becomes man, that He may make Adam God.”
