Greece: Greece is steeped in rich cultural, religious, family and rural traditions. It lives on through its songs, dances, food and in the traditional Greek way of life. And, it lives on in its language, its rich history and through what it passed on to Western civilization.
Rhodes Island: The historic island of Rhodes offers the visitor visible reminders of its long and turbulent past from the glory the ancient Greeks to Romans, Byzantines, Genoese, Venetians, Crusader Knights, Ottomans and Italians have controlled the islands for various periods leaving behind a unique blend of western and eastern cultures and historical sites.

Symi: A popular tourist destination known for its beaches, its annual music festival and for its breathtaking views of one of the most beautiful harbors in the world surrounded by colorful neoclassical houses built amphitheatrically on its hilly slopes. Monastery Panormitis is a place of Christian faith and a sanctuary for the weary body, mind and soul seeking inspiration and spiritual renewal.
Southern Rhodes: Southern Rhodes offers panoramic island views, historic sites, traditional villages, beautiful beaches, food experiences and, memories that will last a lifetime. It is a haven of rugged landscapes, traditional, whitewashed villages, hilltop monasteries and a tranquility that takes you away from the hustle and bustle of city life with its pollution, noise and traffic. Swallows (hellidonia) are the symbol of spring in Greece. The traditional values, songs and poems of Southern Rhodes create a sense of belonging. Every family preserves the treasures of Greek culture and its Orthodox faith. Rural life still goes on and remains an important part of the Southern Rhodes way of life. Some of the old people never left their villages and continue to work the fields their own parents and grandparents worked.
Spring heralds the beginning of the tourist season in Greece, village homes are freshly painted and the rural landscape is carpeted with colorful wildflowers, fruit trees are blooming and chirping birds are building their nests.
Mesanagros: Sitting under the old platano tree outside the kafeneio (cafe) and next door to the historic 5th century AD Church, Koimisis tis Theotokou, you can share the tranquility of village life with the birds happily chirping their wonderful songs. The traditional village of Mesanagros was a goat-herding and farming community growing various grain crops, olive groves, watermelon and honey-dew melon patches and fruit and vegetables.
Churches and Monasteries: Every Sunday and on all holy days, Orthodox churches celebrate their most important service, the Divine Liturgy. This service is a re-enactment of the Birth, Life, Death and Resurrection of Jesus Christ and the means by which we achieve union with God and with each other through the Sacraments. When the church bells of Taxiarhis sound across the hills and valleys of Mesanagros people put aside their duties and go to church to hear the Voice of God and to find Jesus the Good Shepherd who leads His flock to greener pastures.
Symbols of Christianity: Christianity gives humanity their greatest asset - Faith in God and Jesus Christ! Christianity believes in one God who created Heaven and the universe and, upon the Life, Miracles and Teachings of Jesus Christ the Good Shepherd, Who came to lead His flock to greener pastures. Christianity gives humanity a reason to life in this world and in the eternal world to come in God's Heavenly Kingdom. Christian life provides a spiritual language and ethical culture to follow a balanced, wholesome life that sets the moral and social foundation throughout life.
