NEW YORK – Saint Nicholas Greek Orthodox Church and National Shrine held a “topping out ceremony” this morning at its construction site at Greenwich and Liberty Streets in New York City.
Archibishop Demetrios’s message on the rebuilding of the Saint Nicholas Shrine at Ground Zero:
NEW YORK – More than 2,000 people gathered yesterday Oct. 18, 2014 at 130 Liberty Street, the new site for Saint Nicholas National Shrine at the World Trade Center, for the historic event of the Blessing of the Ground and the symbolic “laying of the corner stone.”
By Nick Stamatakis “An endless fountain of divine gifts”, as the Orthodox Hymn to Saint Nicholas poetically says, may the new Church and Shrine at the hollowed space of Ground Zero be.
