KefiFM and HBBU Join Forces Again for 2025 Radiothon to Sponsor Children of the Metropolis of Boston Camp
Following the incredible success of last year’s event, which raised funds to send 10 children to the Metropolis of Boston Camp, KefiFM is once again partnering with Hellenic Boston Businesses Unite (HBBU) to host the 2025 Radiothon. On Sunday, February 23, 2025 the St. Sophia Greek Orthodox Church community warmly welcomed His Eminence Metropolitan Methodios Metropolitan Methodios visited the St. Methodios Faith and Heritage Center during its Winter Camp session and was pleased to see the ongoing construction of the new Indoor Gymnasium and Field House.
The project has been making steady progress, with notable updates as of February 14. From February 15-17, the Metropolis of Boston Camp hosted the second of two Winter Camp sessions, marking the official start of the 2025 camping season. Due to the program's growth over the past two years, two GOYA Winter Camp sessions were necessary to accommodate nearly 300 young adult staff members and campers. The clergy of the Metropolis of Boston convened at the Metropolis Center for their monthly Syndesmos meeting, bringing together priests from across New England. The gathering, led by Metropolitan Methodios, provided an opportunity for spiritual fellowship, discussion, and updates on key ministry initiatives. In response to the devastating fires in Southern California, the Metropolis of Boston Philoptochos Board, with the blessing of His Eminence Metropolitan Methodios, has contributed $10,000 to Saint Sophia Church in Los Angeles. This donation is intended to support brethren affected by the catastrophic fires, offering them some measure of comfort and relief during this difficult time. This past December, 27 young adults and members of the Greek Orthodox Metropolis of Boston journeyed to Mt. Athos, as part of a pilgrimage of faith. Thanks to the dedication, friendship and collaboration of His Eminence Metropolitan Methodios of Boston and Barnabas of Neapolis and Stavroupolis, the pilgrims were extended incredible hospitality at the Monastery of Xenophontos as they were immersed in the monastic life, all while uniquely connecting to their faith. His Eminence Metropolitan Methodios was pleased to join Archbishop Elpidophoros of America and many clergy from across the Archdiocesan District for their annual Clergy Lenten Retreat which took place at Hellenic College Holy Cross (HCHC). This special gathering provided an opportunity for clergy to come together in prayer, fellowship, and spiritual reflection in preparation for Great Lent. The faithful of St. George Greek Orthodox Cathedral welcomed Metropolitan Methodios as he celebrated the Divine Liturgy together with Fr. Dionysios Koulianos, Dean of the St. George Cathedral. His Eminence Metropolitan Methodios joined the faithful in celebrating the Feast of the Three Hierarchs, a day honoring St. Basil the Great, St. Gregory the Theologian, and St. John Chrysostom—champions of Orthodox theology and Hellenic education. This special event highlighted both the spiritual and cultural heritage of the Greek Orthodox Church, emphasizing the significance of faith, education, and the Greek language.

The service was presided over by Metropolitan Methodios of the Greek Orthodox Metropolis of Boston. On a joyous evening, members of the Taxiarchae Christmas Choir gathered for their annual Vasilopita Celebration, hosted graciously by Cynthia Alex at her home.
