Grand Master’s Greeting for 2025
My brethren,
A beautiful year has come to an end. A year that will forever remain etched in my memory, as you honored me by electing me to the position of Grand Master of the NGLG.
Your trust in me fills me with a profound sense of responsibility for the future. I cannot yet tell you the outcome of your choice, but I can assure you that I will do everything in my power to meet the expectations of such an honorable selection.
I have found companions in this effort in all of you, and for this reason, I want to thank each and every one of you, collectively and individually, for the heartfelt dedication you show daily by my side, so that together we may see our NGLG reach the level it rightfully deserves.
The challenges are many, and those who envy this progress are even more numerous. However, evolution is inevitable, both for the NGLG and for Greek Freemasonry as a whole! The river can no longer flow backward.
At this point, I would like to extend my heartfelt thanks.

This choice highlights two key points:
In the Symbolic Lodges under the auspices of the NGLG, more than one Masonic Rite is now practiced. I openly declare my admiration for all of them, regardless of the fact that I took my first Masonic steps in the Rite of Amity. Having already studied and worked within various Rites, I believe that this is both achievable and highly beneficial for everyone—because, as Einstein said, “Wisdom is not a product of schooling, but the result of a lifelong attempt to acquire it.”
In this spirit, my brethren, I invite all of you who have the time and willingness to explore these rituals, to attend the workings of Lodges that practice them. By doing so, you grant yourselves the opportunity to witness the greatness that lies behind each one and to better understand your Brother who works within a different framework.
The Lodges of an educational nature will, over the coming year, analyze both the ritualistic aspects and the educational-symbolic essence of each of these rituals, with the assistance of the Grand Secretary of Education.
I wish you and your families a Happy and Prosperous New Year, a Wonderful 2025, filled with Health and Good Fortune, and may we always meet both within and beyond the Lodges!
Build unto the Ages!
