I just recently finished this website for my church http://stnickporticons.com/
My church is Greek Orthodox and many people are from Greece here and only speak, read and write Greek. There are also a lot of older people.

I have seen on some websites that there is a dropdown choice of text size. I know you can use ctrl + but a lot of these people can barely use a computer. I though iy would be easiest to offer a visual choice to allow them to choose text size.

I am also hoping that there is a way to change the fonts to Greek alphabet if that is the viewer's choice.
thank you in advance

Try Googling for a font-size adjuster script - you'll probably find something with or without a cookie to remember the last size setting. There's also this in the DD library http://www.dynamicdrive.com/dynamicindex9/fluidtextresizer.htm

Think a little outside the box and you can also consider a stylesheet switcher, where the only style you change is the font-size. There are plenty of JavaScript versions online if you look, but here's a PHP version with cookie too http://www.dynamicdrive.com/forums/entry.php?305-PHP-Stylesheet-Content-Switcher-with-Save-Cookie

As for a website translation plugin, Google offers this https://translate.google.com/manager/website/ Might be something you can make use of.
