On Sunday, August 9, 2026, on the blessed occasion of the Feast of the Holy Great-Martyr and Healer Panteleimon, we joyfully commemorated the 56th anniversary of the monastic tonsure and ordination to the holy diaconate of our Vladika Nikolai.

With thanksgiving to Almighty God, we give glory for the many years of his monastic life and faithful service to the Holy Church, and we pray that the Lord, through the intercessions of the Holy Great-Martyr and Healer Panteleimon, will continue to grant Vladika Nikolai many blessed years in health, peace, and spiritual strength.

Axios! Many Blessed Years, Vladika Nikolai!
