The Holy Fire will be conveyed to Athens, and by extension, to all of Greece, from the Church of the Holy Sepulcher in Jerusalem on Holy Saturday aboard a flight from the Holy Land.
Special procedures will be in effect due to the pandemic, and in light of concerns expressed by the Israeli side.
The Holy Fire will be conveyed aboard an plane landing in the Athens area in the afternoon, where it will be received by the Metropolitan of Glyfada, His Eminence Antonios.
