St. Elias Antiochian Orthodox Church- Syracuse, New York

This beautiful icon of St. Elias was donated by Nuha Sousou and her children in loving memory of her husband, their father, and our beloved parishioner, Elia Sousou.
The beautiful frame, base, and shelves were handcrafted by Elia’s son-in-law, Brian Craig. Thank you, Brian, for creating such a beautiful work of art and a lasting tribute to Elia.
Every Sunday morning, we remember seeing Elia standing by the candle table with his warm smile and his familiar, “Good Morning.”
He is deeply missed and will always be remembered and loved by our parish family. ❤️
May His Memory Be Eternal. 🙏

Join us for Holy Week Services. Here is our schedule.

03/30/2026

This past weekend was a joyful and blessed one as we welcomed His Grace, Bishop Alexander.

On Saturday, we gathered for Vespers, followed by a beautiful time of fellowship over dinner. His Grace also spent time meeting with members of our Parish Council as well as our Young Adult Ministry, offering encouragement and guidance.

On Sunday, we celebrated the Divine Liturgy together, and were especially blessed to witness several of our parishioners being inducted into the Order of Saint Ignatius.

We are grateful for His Grace’s visit and for the many blessings shared throughout the weekend!
