During his first visit to the United States, Archbishop Ieronymos of Athens and All Greece visited Boston a couple of days ago where on Saturday he would be proclaimed an honorary professor of the Holy Cross Greek Orthodox School of Theology. The trip was made following an invitation from Archbishop Demetrios of America.

The Archbishop visited the Boston Art Museum on Thursday and the scene of the bloody bomb attack near the finishing line of the Boston marathon race last month. Later in the evening, attended a formal dinner given in his honor by Metropolitan Bishop Methodios.

On Saturday afternoon, accompanied by Archbishop Demetrios, he is to visit New York for a series of meetings with US officials and members of the Greek-American community as well as several Greek Orthodox churches, schools and institutions.
