Annual Epiphany Celebration Recap – January 11, 2026

 

On Sunday, January 11, 2026, His Eminence Metropolitan Apostolos of New Jersey celebrated Divine Liturgy at St. Demetrios in Perth Amboy, followed by the Blessing of the Waters and Diving for the Cross at the Raritan Bay.

We offer our heartfelt thanks to His Eminence for blessing our parish and continuing the cherished tradition of our Annual Epiphany Celebration.

We congratulate our GOYAns, Constantine Katsilis and Emalee Rizitis, and thank all of our youth, students, clergy, and faithful who made this day so meaningful. We are especially grateful to everyone who attended and to the many volunteers and donors whose generosity of time, talents, and treasure made this beautiful celebration possible. May the Light of Theophany continue to inspire and bless our entire community.
