Church commemorates Return of Body of Bartholomew, the Glorious Apostle

The Church today commemorates the Return of the Body of Bartholomew, the Glorious Apostle.

Today is also the feast day of Titus, the Apostle of the 70. On the occasion of today’s feast day of St. Titus, a great archieratical Vesper was held on Wednesday at a dedicated cathedral on Crete, where the saint’s honorable head is preserved as a Holy Relic.

The Archbishop of Crete, His Eminence Evgenios, officiated at the service, which was attended by numerous faithful from across the large Aegean Island.

A memorial service followed in the courtyard of the cathedral for the repose of the souls of the hundreds of local Greek Orthodox Christians and 15 British servicemen slain by mobs of Ottoman Muslims during the events of Aug. 25, 1898 in Irakleio (Heraklion), Crete, known as the Candia massacre.
