Yesterday at 7:00 pm before a large gathering of the faithful, clergy and hierarchs, there took place the groundbreaking ceremony for a sacred church dedicated to the martyr Saint Gregory V who was hung by the Turks on Pascha of 1821. It is the first church built in honor of Saint Gregory V in our land, and naturally it is here where he was born and walked his first steps in Dimitsana, as Metropolitan Chrysostomos of Patras said emotionally following his presiding over the Divine Liturgy prior to the groundbreaking.
