Kogarah: “A heartwarming Christmas visit by the Parish-Community of the Resurrection of Christ to St. Basil’s Nursing Home”

The Parish-Community of the Resurrection of Christ, in the Sydney suburb of Kogarah, had the blessing of bringing Christmas joy to the residents of St. Basil’s Nursing Home in Kogarah through a heartfelt visit filled with music, love, and warm fellowship. The highlight of the day was the beautiful performance by their Sunday School choir, who sang traditional Christmas carols. 

His Grace Bishop Christodoulos of Magnesia, conveyed the paternal blessings and love of His Eminence Archbishop Makarios of Australia to all the staff and residents of St. Basil’s. He expressed gratitude for their dedication and care, reminding everyone of the true meaning of Christmas as a season of giving and sharing God’s love. 

Accompanying His Grace were Father Athanasios, Mr. Nicholas Varvaris (Parish President), members of the Parish Committee, and the dedicated members of the Philoptochos. Together, they distributed Christmas gifts to the residents—thoughtfully prepared by the Kogarah Philoptochos with love and care.
