Washington, DC — The American Hellenic Institute mourns the passing of Archbishop Chrysostomos II, a man of devotion and service to Orthodoxy, Hellenism and the people of Cyprus.
“We mourn the loss of Archbishop Chrysostomos II,” AHI President Nick Larigakis said. “In particular, we appreciated the Archbishop’s willingness over the years to meet with AHI’s leadership. In addition, the Archbishop regularly met with the students of the AHIF Foreign Policy Program, having a genuine interest in the next generation of diaspora youth leaders.
“He will be remembered for his lifetime of selfless devotion to the Church, his passion and commitment for a just and peaceful Cyprus solution, and as a proponent of religious unity.
“We extend our deepest condolences to his family, the Holy Synod, the clergy and the people of Cyprus. May his memory be eternal.”
