Before his return to New York, His Eminence Archbishop Elpidophoros visited His Eminence Metropolitan Alexios at his residence in Atlanta to wish him a speedy recovery from his recent health troubles.
The Archbishop expressed to the esteemed Hierarch the blessing and best wishes of His All-Holiness Ecumenical Patriarch Bartholomew, as well as of the Eparchial Synod and the Hierarchs, the clergy, and the people of the Archdiocese, for a fast and full recovery.
After the visit, the Archbishop stated, “I was pleased to visit my beloved brother in Christ, especially when I saw him standing strong and optimistic as we all know him. His attending physicians are optimistic about the progress of his health and believe that after a necessary period of treatment and rest, the blessed Metropolitan of Atlanta will be back to his usual self. Glory be to God in all things.”
