Archdeaconess Angelic-Phoebe’s Ministry
This month, we celebrate the one year anniversary of the ordination of Archdeaconess Angelic-Phoebe. Axia!
Archdeaconess Angelic-Phoebe continues to serve at St. Nektarios Parish in Harare, Zimbabwe. With support from her congregation and fellow clergy, she leads women’s ministries, pastoral care, and community outreach programs, specifically supporting women and children to flourish in their faith and life.
Her ministry supports the whole person – she has established a feeding program and a community garden to provide physical nourishment, as well as spiritual nourishment, for the underserved members of her church.
She has fostered a compassionate and faith-rooted environment through catechism classes, pastoral visits, and women support groups.
She has impacted the Orthodox community across Zimbabwe and beyond, representing the Archbishop at global church events, including the All Africa Conference of Churches and the World Council of Churches.
Through everything, she shares her deep gratitude for the guidance of His Eminence Metropolitan Serafim and encouragement of her parish priest, Fr. Augustine Moeketsi.
Join us in celebrating and supporting Archdeaconess Angelic-Phoebe’s vital work!
