Ecumenical Patriarch welcomed Archbishop of Cyprus

Archbishop Chrysostomos of Cyprus is at the Ecumenical Patriarchate to meet with Ecumenical Patriarch Bartholomew. The visit is part of the invitation of the Ecumenical Patriarch to the Hierarch of Cyprus. The Ecumenical Patriarch had invited the Primate of Cyprus to concelebrate the Divine Liturgy on the Sunday of Orthodoxy.

The Ecumenical Patriarch expressed joy when he saw the Archbishop after his poor health condition and hoped that the Archbishop would live many years and with the grace of God would be at the helm of the Church of Cyprus while being the strong and steadfast pillar of Cypriot devoutness and Orthodoxy.

Archbishop Chrysostomos said that he thanked God for deeming him worthy to make his first trip to the Holy Center of Orthodoxy, after his treatment in the US.

“I am grateful that the Ecumenical Patriarch invited me to concelebrate the Divine Liturgy on Sunday of Orthodoxy. This is even more important to me after travelling to the US for my treatment,” the Archbishop said.
