The 8th Anniversary General Clergy Assembly of the Holy Metropolis of Aetolia and Acarnania took place on Wednesday, October 21, 2026, at the Holy Metropolitan Church of Saint Spyridon in Missolonghi.
Metropolitan Anthimos of Alexandroupoli attended as a guest of Metropolitan Damaskinos of Aetolia and Acarnania. During the assembly, Metropolitan Anthimos presented on the theme ‘Martyrdom and Witness – Missolonghi as a Symbol of Freedom.’ Drawing inspiration from the poetry of Dionysios Solomos, he discussed the necessity for the Church to engage in a new ‘Exodus’ toward modern humanity, specifically reaching out to children, youth, and those currently outside the Church.
