    to the Great and Angelic Schema by His Grace, Bishop Auxentios of
    Photike. Their sponsor was Archimandrite Father Akakios, Abbot of the

    vent of St. Elizabeth, Nuns Synkletike and Barbara, the biological sis-
    ters of Fathers Vlasie and Chrysostomos, were in attendance at the ton-
    sures of their brothers.
