Thomas Sunday: the renovation of St Nicholas is complete

Thomas Sunday: the renovation of St Nicholas is complete

Today, Thomas Sunday, when we celebrate the Renewal of Christ’s Resurrection and the saving confession of the Apostle Thomas, we celebrated the Divine Liturgy at the Holy Metropolitan Church of Saint Nicholas in Majunga, Madagascar. Glory to God, the renovation has been completed, bringing out the splendour of this historic church, which was built in 1929 by Nikolaos the Cretan and renovated in 1953. The recent renovation of 2026 has restored it to the form and dignity befitting it.

The grandeur of the church bears witness to the deep faith of the Greeks in Orthodoxy and in Christ, and is at the same time a living transmission of the Greek spirit and culture to this faraway island.
