Greek Independence Day 2014

On Sunday 23^rd March, the Greek Orthodox Christian Society, the Greek Orthodox Ladies Fellowship, and the Youth Fellowships (Ομάδες) of Sydney, participated in the annual 25^th March commemoration of Greek Independence Day. Following a memorial service at Martin Place officiated by His Eminence Archbishop Stylianos, the various parishes, schools, communities and Greek organisations subsequently marched towards Sydney’s Domain, where a large crowd was waiting to enthusiastically greet their entry. The event was honoured by the attendance of numerous national, Greek and state political leaders, who warmly spoke of the historical and spiritual significance of the Day, as well as the strong contribution of Greeks to Australian society.
