Seems so, This will clarify: http://tinyurl.com/3u9753 (http://www.greeknewsonline.com/modules.php? name=News&file=article&sid=9073&mode=thread&order=0&thold=0) "...His Eminence, Metropolitan Evangelos will also conduct a Trisagion Service for the late Patriarch Athenagoras and place a wreath over a statue erected by the City of Asbury Park in his honor on the Boardwalk. The Holy Cross Celebration and Blessing of the Waters in Asbury Park was instituted by the then Archbishop of North and South America and later Ecumenical Patriarch Athenagoras in 1947, with the prayer that the world's oceans, which connect all peoples of the Earth, could also become vessels that transmit the hope and triumph of Christ's Cross. The Holy Cross Celebration in Asbury Park, NJ, held annually in September on the first Sunday following the Exaltation of the Holy Cross, is considered to be one of the watershed and joyous events of the New Ecclesiastical Year for the Greek Orthodox Metropolis of New Jersey, and as such, draws Orthodox Faithful from throughout the Metropolitan area who join together in prayer as the one Body of Christ."
