The Greek Orthodox Community of S.A. will honour for yet another year this historic day with the following scheduled events:

SUNDAY 26 MARCH 2017 at 11.00am, celebratory Doxology at the Cathedral of Archangels Michael and Gabriel, conducted by his Eminence Bishop of Adelaide Chrisostom and the Community’s clergy. The Executive and Supervisory Committees as well as teaching staff and students will also be present.

The celebrations will continue at the church’s courtyard, in front of the war memorial, with a memorial service, poem recitals, laying of wreaths and the national anthems.

At 5.00pm in the afternoon, the Community’s Greek schools will continue the celebrations with a special students event, featuring songs, poems and short sketches depicting the heroic tales of the 1821 Epos.

For the Greek Orthodox Community, the celebration of the 1821 Greek Independence is a national duty and this is why we invite all Hellenes to participate, paying tribute to those heroes who sacrificed their lives for the dignity of the Greek people and for the freedom of Greece.
