Rev. Stanley Markantonis

ADDENDUM

  In 1926, the political struggle in Greece between the royalists and the 
republicans, as well as the ecclesiastical controversy over the old and new 
church calendars, led to a split in the community.  A dissident group of 
republican/new calendarists established a new parish dedicated to the 
Holy Transfiguration.  The priests who served this parish were:

Rev. Astergios Papastergiou				1926
Rev. Efstathios Georgiades				1927
Rev. Artemios Artemiou					1928
Rev. Gregory Melonadakis				1929
Rev. George Economides					1930

  In 1930, the parishes voted to re-unite, and the Rev. George Economides, then
pastor of Holy Transfiguration, was appointed pastor of the newly unified 
parish of St. Vasilios.
