Synaxis of All Saints of Thasos


In 1999 the Sacred Metropolis of Philippi, Neapolis and Thasos announced that following the relevant approval of the Holy Synod of the Church of Greece, it has been determined that the Synaxis of All the Saints of the Island of Thasos will be celebrated on the first Sunday of September of each year, beginning in the year 2000.

Our Saints who lived or passed through this blessed island of ours, which is rich in culture, religiosity, piety and history, from antiquity to our days, are the protectors and patrons of this holy place, and they are:
