On September 16, 2024, Metropolitan Meliton of Philadelphia celebrated the Divine Liturgy at the Patriarchal Church in honor of the feast of the Holy and glorious Great Martyr Euphemia.
Among the attendees were Metropolitan Maximos of Silivria, Metropolitan Joachim of Prussa, Bishop Adrianos of Halicarnassus, as well as clergy and faithful from Constantinople and abroad.
Prior to the feast day, the same Hierarch presided over the Great Vespers.
The Holy Relic of the Saint, housed in the Patriarchal Church, was available for veneration by the devoted faithful on both days.
