Congratulations to our past Parish Council President, Cassandra Tsintolas Johnson on her re-appointment as a voting member of the Archdiocesan District Council by His Eminence Archbishop Elpidophoros.

The Saint Sophia Cathedral Community congratulates past Parish Council President, Cassandra Tsintolas Johnson on her re-appointment as a voting member of the Archdiocesan District Council by His Eminence Archbishop Elpidophoros.  In His appointment letter, His Eminence emphasized that the Archdiocesan District Council is the “esteemed body of clergy and lay individuals …working together…for the collective betterment and spiritual flourishing of our communities and faithful” that comprise the Archdiocesan District and that “requires a unique blend of forward-thinking and understanding, vision, and leadership” that is “instrumental in helping shape the future of our District.”

Also noteworthy is that earlier this year, in January 2024, His Eminence appointed Cassandra to the high honor as Senator of Orthodoxy and Hellenism of our Sacred Archdiocese of America, a “distinction of the highest order” and a body that comprises part of the “collective memory of the Institutional Church.”  She has also been a member of the Archdiocesan Council, an Eparchy of the Ecumenical Patriarchate of the Holy Mother Church of Constantinople.
