On 14th August His Beatitude officiated at the Great Vespers and the Epitaphios of the Theotokos at the Holy Patriarchal Church of St Savvas the Sanctified in Alexandria. The next day, 15th August, he conducted the Divine Liturgy at the Holy Church of the Annunciation of the Theotokos in Alexandria, together with His Grace Bishop Gabriel of Mareotis.

Many Greeks from the Great City attended the Liturgy, as did the Officers and crew of the Frigate "Navarino" and the submarine "Pontos" from the Greek navy which were berthed in Alexandria for naval exercises. On 18th August 208, His Beatitude flew out of Alexandria on his way to his birthplace of Crete, for a few days' rest and was seen off by His Grace Gabriel, Patriarchal Vicar of Alexandria.
