Eternal Memory



Archbishop Iakovos, former Archbishop of North and South America.

May God forgive the Archbishop of his sins and grant him a seat at the Heavenly Banquet. He did his share of good work and that should not be forgotten.

Christ our Lord, grant rest to your servant Iakovos among Your Saints, where there is no pain, sorrow or suffering, but everlasting life.

With the righteous who have reposed in Your peace, grant rest, Savior, to the soul of your servant Iakovos, and bestow upon him the blessed life which is from You, merciful Lord.

Lord, remember Your servant Iakovos who has fallen asleep in the hope of the resurrection. Forgive him every transgression in thought, word or deed. Grant him peace and refreshment in the place of light where Your glory delights all the Saints. For You are the resurrection, the repose and the life of Your departed servant Iakovos, and to You I give glory, now and forever. Amen.
