Loukianos Avramides
Member at Large
Loukianos Avramides is a lifelong Orthodox Christian who has been a devoted member of Holy Apostles for eight years. Drawn to the parish by its welcoming small community, proximity to his home, and the exceptional leadership of Father Tom, Loukianos has found a spiritual home where he deeply connects to the faith.
A particularly meaningful experience for him was the 2024 Epiphany celebration, especially the "throwing of the Cross" ceremony, which underscored the beauty and depth of Orthodox traditions. He draws strength from his patron saint, St. Loukianos, and finds inspiration in St. Ephraim of Nea Makri, who has guided him through significant life decisions.
With a professional background in management, logistics, and customer service, Loukianos brings valuable organizational and strategic planning skills to his role on the parish council. His faith keeps him grounded in humility and service, reminding him daily of the shared humanity and divine connection among all people. He is committed to helping the parish grow in both membership and facilities, with a vision to see Orthodoxy shine as a beacon of hope in today's world.
Loukianos is excited about Holy Apostles' future and looks forward to fostering better organization and nurturing the parish as a vibrant, thriving community. His combination of lifelong Orthodox devotion, professional management expertise, and commitment to serving others makes him a dedicated voice for growth and excellence in parish leadership.
