Summer often brings a change of pace, but life at the Greek Orthodox Cathedral of Saint Paul continues each day. To make or update your 2026 Stewardship commitment, please visit www.stpaulhempstead.org/stewardship.

Whether through worship, prayer, youth formation, or caring for one another, our parish's mission remains active throughout the season. Stewardship helps make that possible, providing ongoing support for the ministries and programs that enrich our community and strengthen our spiritual home.

We are grateful to everyone who continues to invest in the life of our Cathedral and its future!

On the Sunday of All Saints, we recognize and commemorate the work of the National Sisterhood of Presvyteres. We honor our local Presvyteres, not only as the wives of our priests, but our support and prayful example of a life centered in Christ.
We honor and thank Presvytera Dianna, Presvytera Marilyn, Presvytera Georgia, and Diakonissa Betsy, for all the work and love they give to our church.

We congratulate our high school seniors who we honor prior to their High School Graduation. We congratulate our beautiful students and wish them all of God's blessings as they begin their new endeavors in life and academics! Congratulations to their families and our whole community for the example of these amazing students!

We also celebrate the baptism of two beautiful children, Iasonas Nicholas, and Zoe Isadora. May they be blessed along with their families, with God's grace and health!

We thank our sponsors, donors, volunteers, our patrons, neighbors, friends, and parishioners for all their participation in making this year's Greek Cultural Festival a massive success!

A special "Thank you!" to our Festival Chairpersons and Venue Chairpersons for their countless hours of preparation and dedication!

We braved a little rain, randomly cold temperatures, and high winds to gather as a community in celebration of our faith, culture, and heritage! Thank you to all who made this possible.

Through God's blessings, Panaghia's intercessions, and through the prayers of St Paul, we look forward to many more blessed events!
To God we give the Glory!

Beloved Cathedral of St. Paul Family,

It is with all hope in the Resurrection of our Lord and Savior Jesus Christ, that we announce the falling asleep of Mr. Vasilios Tsempelis. 

"He was a loving father, devoted husband, cherished brother, beloved family member, and dear friend. Known for his thoughtfulness, generosity, and selfless spirit, he touched the lives of everyone fortunate enough to know him. He always put others before himself, offering unwavering support, kindness, and love without hesitation. To his family, he was more than a loved one—he was a hero, a source of strength, guidance, and inspiration. Though he is no longer with us, his memory will never be forgotten. He will be forever cherished, and the values he lived by, the love he shared, and the countless lives he impacted will ensure that his legacy carries on for all eternity. May he rest in eternal peace"

In lieu of flowers, Vasilios' family would appreciate donations in his memory be made to The Greek Orthodox Cathedral of St. Paul Building Expansion Fund. May his memory be eternal.

Towers Funeral Home, Oceanside, NY
Mon. June 1st - 4:00pm to 9:00pm

Funeral Service:
The Greek Orthodox Cathedral of St. Paul, Hempstead, NY
Tue. June 2nd - 11:00am

Fr. Demetrios Kazakis
