Teaching the word of God is a great blessing for us all. We need parents who are prepared to dedicate an hour a week to teaching our children

Iconostasis

We have been blessed with a new, magnificent Marble iconostasis which adorns the church. This has been built through the grace of God, and we would be humbled by your donations to assist us in paying for this beautiful structure. Please contact Fr. Constantine Varipatis on 0418 511 212, or send a cheque or money order to P.O.Box 170 Sylvania Sydney, N.S.W 2224 Australia.

Recent News and Events

Saint Stylianos, protector of children, and his Feast Day celebrations at Gymea, Sydney.



The Feast day of St Stylianos was celebrated at the Parish of St Stylianos, Gymea. His Grace Bishop Seraphim served at the Great Vespers – 25th November and Divine Liturgy on the Sunday after the Feast Day on the 27th of November. On the 26th of November we had the blessing of having Fr (Dr) George Liangos speak about the issues teenagers face with the technological revolution. We pray that the Saint continues to intercede for our children. Also we pray God blesses His Eminence Archbishop Stylianos with health.

The day was well attended by people from around Sydney. The Sutherland Shire dancing groups under the dance teacher Maria Karabellas certainly made the whole day memorable. Also a big thank you to Martha Ventouris from United Seafood Botany for donating the seafood in memory of her mother Maria.
