Abp. Elpidophoros to Invest 47 New Archons in New York
NEW YORK — On Sunday, October 18, 2026, Abp. Elpidophoros of the Greek Orthodox Archdiocese of America will preside over the investiture of 47 new Archons of the Ecumenical Patriarchate following the Divine Liturgy at the Archdiocesan Cathedral of the Holy Trinity in New York City.
A notable individual who is scheduled to become an Archon is Michael Huffington, the former U.S. Representative known for marrying Arianna Stassinopoulos Huffington, who co-founded the Huffington Post.
After serving in the House of Representatives, Michael Huffington – a Republican – lost a race for U.S. Senate to longtime California Sen. Dianne Feinstein in 1994. Following a divorce from Stassinopoulos in 1997, Huffington came out as bisexual and became an activist for the LGBTQ cause. He has contributed millions in funding to establish a Huffington Ecumenical Institute at both Loyala Marymount University and Hellenic College Holy Cross.
