WASHINGTON, DC - American Hellenic Institute (AHI) President Nick Larigakis attended 118th Epiphany celebrations in Tarpon Springs, Fla., January 5 to 7, 2024.

President Larigakis attended church services at Saint Nicholas Greek Orthodox Cathedral and participated in the procession that made its way to the Spring Bayou on January 6. Larigakis had the pleasure of being on the dock where His Eminence Archbishop Elpidophoros of America officiated over the ceremonial cross dive and blessing of the waters.

On January 5, Larigakis attended the annual AHEPA Epiphany dinner that included the participation of Archbishop Elpidophoros and U.S. Rep. Gus Bilirakis, co-chair of the Congressional Caucus on Hellenic Issues.

“It was a pleasure to witness and support this annual event and all that it represents to the community,” Larigakis said. “I commend the Greek American community of Tarpon Springs, city officials and event organizers on a successful event.”
