The six-month memorial service for the late Archbishop Anastasios of Albania was held
“The late Archbishop Anastasios will always be among us through his works and his words,” was the prevailing sentiment during the memorial service marking six months since his passing.
The Divine Liturgy was held at the Resurrection Cathedral in Tirana, presided over by His Beatitude Archbishop Ioannis of Albania, concelebrated by Metropolitan Nicholas of Apollonia and Fier, Metropolitan Anthony of Elbasan, Metropolitan Astios of Berat, Metropolitan Nathaniel of Amantia, and Bishop Anastasios of Kruja, along with clergy from all the Metropolises of Albania.
Towards the end of the Divine Liturgy, a memorial service was conducted in the presence of a large congregation. Following the Liturgy, a Trisagion was chanted at the Archbishop’s grave by Archbishop Ioannis, accompanied by the members of the Holy Synod of the Church of Albania.
In his address, Archbishop Ioannis spoke about his predecessor, emphasising his multifaceted personality and the wide-ranging legacy of his work, which constitutes an inexhaustible and enduring spiritual heritage.
Afterwards, coffee was served to all those in attendance in the hall beneath the cathedral.
Fr. Ilias Makos
