A new star in the firmament of the Orthodox Church, Archimandrite Gerbasius Paraskeyopoulos, shone through his life, teaching, and works, not only in the Holy Metropolis of Patras, where his pastoral activity primarily developed but also throughout the Greek Orthodox Church, as he is the founder of parish catechetical schools and church kindergartens.

His life is crystal clear, Saintly and Patristic. A strict adherent of the Sacred Traditions, he distinguished himself for the depth and foresight of his theological discourse. His teaching, both contemporary and prophetic, penetrates the soul of every believer who struggles for the salvation of their soul.

Saint Pastor of Patras is a true Heaven-Guiding Star; anyone who follows him can be sure they will achieve their union with their Creator God.
