Greece honors its 203rd Anniversary of Greek Independence, March 25, 1821
The Greek Independence Day commemorates the revolution and restoration of the Greek Nation after almost 400 years of occupation and enslavement to the Ottoman Empire and the start of the war of Greek Independence in 1821. It also coincides with the Greek Orthodox Church celebration of the Feast of Annunciation. The Greek revolt was precipitated on March 25, 1821, when Archbishop Germanos of Patras called upon Greeks to rise up against the Ottoman and raised the flag of revolution over the Monastery of Agia Lavra in Peloponnese. The War of Independence was fought fiercely under the motto "Freedom or Death".
In celebration of Greek Independence Day, town and villages throughout Greece and major cities in Europe and the United States, hold a school flag Parade, during which school children march in traditional Greek costumes and carry greek flags. It is a celebration of the Greek identify and commemoration, through which all Greek people can express and promote their cultural and achievements in the world.
On Friday, March 17, 2023, at St. Andrew’s Greek Orthodox Church,
His Grace Bishop Timothy celebrated the Salutations of the
Theotokos (Hairetismoi) along with Very Rev. Simeon Johnson,
Rev. Fr. Dimitri Tobias and Deacon Anthony Callas.

Rev. Christos J. Vagias with Mark V. Tiniakos, former Board Member of St. George Greek Orthodox Church in Chicago.
Rev. Father, Christos J. Vagias, a former priest of St. George Greek Orthodox Church in Chicago, passed away recently in the Village of Mikrospilia, his hometown, in Arta, Greece. He served at St. George for over 35 years. From the first moment at the church, he was determined to organize the community of St. George and he worked diligently with perseverance and self-sacrifice for all the years without counting effort and toil. He worked for the Greek Christian ideals. A brilliant preacher of the Greek language, he preached the word of God in plain Greek that was understood by the common people. His sermon spoke to the hearts of the Greeks who gathered to hear him every Sunday. Over the years, St. George and Father Vagias, synonymous with the Christian faith, unchanged from the influence of English, became a deacon for the preservation of the Greek-Christian faith. The expansion of the building complex with the addition of the Gymnasium and a Community for social events is due to the perseverance and hard work of Father Vagias. Under his guidance, the community of St. George raised funds and with the personal work of its members, a new building was formed that covered the constant needs of the community. Throughout his ministry, Father Vagias offered support, help, and comfort to anyone in need. He is survived by Presbytera Konstantina, his three children, Ioannis, Sotiris, and Nektaria, and his grandchildren.

Remembering Nikos Pentzaropoulos, the amazing goalkeeper of the Panionios Football Team in Athens, Greece, who was highly recognized for his excellent ability and performance. He was born in1927 and passed away in 1979 following his battle with cancer. He started football at the age of thirteen in his neighborhood team and with the great talent he had, he was immediately placed in the first team of Panionios, and in1948 he was called to the National team. He was nicknamed “Hero of Tampere”, after a legendary performance with the Greek Olympic team in a match that took place in the city of Tampere in Finland during the Summer Olympic Games of 1952. While in Tampere, he was given the chance to sign a contract and start training with the Inter Milan team. He made the decision and in August 1952 he traveled to Milan, signed the contract, and started training with the Inter Team. Unfortunately, certain things went wrong and Nikos, very disappointed with the circumstances, had to return to the Panionios team. Apart from being a football player, Pentzaropoulos was also a field jumper with excellent performance, and also, played volleyball and basketball.
