A touching surprise, announced in advance by the humble table calendar of Central Insurance for 2022, is being prepared by Stelios Georgallidis with our most prosperous, daily cartoonist in "Phileleftheros" Pin, Mr. Petros Papapetrou from Slave.

The diary also has the peaceful form of the late priest of the Field of Papachristodoulos Augustis next to his modest priestess, the blessed Kyriakou. Both safe, trustworthy and hospitable shelter of the guerrillas of E.O.K.A. in the Kefalochori of Pitsilia, Agros, during the Cypriot revolution of 1955-1959. Each page - month and another black and white photo related to the Field of the EOKA era, Afxentiou and his action.

There in Agros, in the house with the hideout of Papachristodoulos, he spent with his Rebels the last Christmas of his life, the Christmas of 1956 and one of the leading heroes Grigoris Afxentiou, two months and a few days before he was sacrificed fighting in Macheras March 3, 1957 .

Pre-announcement, we said the diary.

Because a new album of Central Insurance is already being prepared on the subject of the period he lived in Agros, in the house of Papachristodoulos, Afxentiou and his Rebels, focusing on the Christmas of 1956.

There in Agros, on the day when the relentlessly wanted by the British army - and many traitors - Guerrillas, hidden in the "illegality", before raising their glasses of wine and dancing their tsamikos and Kalamatians, listened to the archdeacon Reserve Lieutenant of the Greek Army, Grigoris Afxentiou, Pieris and Antonos from the village of Lysis, to tell them that:

"Now that the English have thrown everything against us, we do not know what the struggle and the fate of everyone has in store for us. But whether we live or die, one must one day be the prize for the dead and the living. Let Cyprus become Greek and live free and happy. The fight is not a give-and-take. And let those who survive not wait, or even worse, let them not seek other rewards and positions, because the services to the homeland are not redeemed. And above all we must not forget that love and unity are a duty and a duty to the homeland… The division has been many times a curse of our race and the discord almost destroyed the revolution of the Twentieth century and destroyed Greece. When I was in High School I was expelled from the class in History, because I was arrogant in supporting Kolokotronis and Dimitris Ypsilantis in the discussion about Mavrokordatos and politicians. That's what I had to tell you and Merry Christmas ".
