An hour-long video of the 1994 consecration of St. Nektarios Cathedral at Holy Trinity Monastery on the island of Aegina has been published by the Orthodoxia News Agency.

St. Nektarios built the Holy Trinity Convent in 1904. In 1908, he resigned from his post as director of the Rizarios Ecclesiastical School in Athens and retired to the monastery, where he lived until his repose in 1920.

The monastery is home to his relics.

The video shows a host of hierarchs, clergy, and faithful, filling the monastery for the great celebration of the consecration of the cathedral built in his honor.

The video features a procession with the precious head of St. Nektarios and the consecration of the cathedral’s holy altar.

November 9/22 we remember St. Nektarios of Aegina, a modern ascetic and wonderworker. His life is amazing: the Lord manifested in a visible and tangible way His care for those who please Him. The saint acquired the gifts of the Holy Spirit: unceasing prayer and spiritual discernment, healing, clairvoyance, and prophecy. When he served the Divine Liturgy, in a prayerful state, his face radiated light which was visible to others. Saint Nektarios of Aegina Saint Nektarios of Aegina

With the passing of St. Nektarios, a hospital nurse, assisted by a nun from the monastery, immediately began to change his clothes and threw his undershirt on the next bed. In this bed lay a paralytic, who once the undershirt landed upon him, was instantly healed and jumped out of bed praising God for his miraculous healing.
