Commencement Day 2025 at Hellenic College Holy Cross Greek Orthodox School of Theology began as it does every year with a Hierarchical Divine Liturgy. Before it ended, Archbishop Elpidophoros of America elevated Rev. Dr. Eugen J. Pentiuc, Dean of Holy Cross and the Archbishop Demetrios Distinguished Professor of Biblical Studies and Christian Origins, to Protopresbyter of the Ecumenical Throne – and honor held by a small group of clergymen in the Greek Orthodox Archdiocese.
