“Our Brotherhood in America is ready to immediately offer its assistance, in every possible way, for the restoration of the damages caused by the disastrous fire which broke out at noon in Greek Hospital of Valouklis, a historic building and a vitally important charitable institution of Hellenism, in Constantinople, which must continue its mission, which is none other than the care and treatment of our elderly and sick brothers.
This statement was made a little while ago by Archbishop of America Elpidophorosexpressing at the same time his gratitude to the merciful God, that there was no human loss.
The Archbishop of America did not fail to express his warm thanks to the firefighters who fought the flames for a long time, to the hospital staff and to all those who rushed to the scene from all over the City, in order to help remove the sick and elderly from the burning building.
In fact, “as our Ecumenical Patriarch also noted, Archbishop Elpidophoros emphasized, what matters is human life, as the buildings, facilities and all other materials that existed in the area can be rebuilt.”
The Archbishop of America also emphasized that he will visit the hospital as soon as he arrives in Istanbul next week, as part of the third pilgrimage visit of our expatriates, organized by the Archdiocese of America on the occasion of the 100th anniversary of its establishment.
Responding to the appeal of Archbishop Elpidophoros for immediate assistance in repairing the damages, the president of the National Charity, Arlene Slaveli Kell, after expressing her deepest regret for the devastating fire, but also her gratitude to God for the immediate and safe evacuation of the hospital , emphasized that “the National Philanthropy, with deep love for the charitable institution, will support its restoration work in every way”.
