60 Years, Archons of the Ecumenical Patriarchate

Archon Presentation to OCF group at Duquesne University

Archon Presentation to OCF group at Duquesne University

Back to albums list

On Tuesday March 28, 2023, Metropolis of Pittsburgh Regional Commander Nick Tranto, Chair of the Youth Participation Activities Committee, offered a presentation to the Orthodox Christian Fellowship (OCF) group of Duquesne University. Archon Tranto was accompanied by his granddaughter Periclea Dimitriou, who is president of the local chapter.

Archon Tranto’s presentation centered on "What is an Archon" and "Why Archons matter" in defense of global religious freedom. The 5 key issues of the Ecumenical Patriarchate, illustrated by PowerPoint photos and graphs revealed to the students the challenges that face the Primacy of HAH. The program ended with the new video on the Pilgrimage of Discovery Journey to Constantinople where post grads (ages 23-28) from across the nation can compete for 5 slots in 2024 for a all expense paid pilgrimage to Constantinople sponsored by the Order of St Andrew the Apostle.
