Balgarianovinite.com Bulgarian Patriarch and Sofia Metropolitan Daniil was officially welcomed by Ecumenical Patriarch Bartholomew I of Constantinople and members of the Holy Synod of the Ecumenical Patriarchate in the Throne Hall of the Patriarchate on Thursday. The occasion was the first peaceful visit of Bulgarian Patriarch to the Ecumenical Patriarchate in Istanbul’s Fener borough.
“With great joy and a heart that glorifies the saving name of our Lord Jesus Christ, He who steers the ship of His Holy Church, we welcome you, most blessed brother, together with your distinguished delegation, to the courtyards of ever-radiant Fener,” Bartholomew said.
“Welcome to the maternal tents, welcome to the Great Church of Christ, which warms the people entrusted to your care. Welcome today as spiritual shepherds to the renewed manger of the new Constantinopolitan Bethlehem, in which the Eastern Church is reborn – the light of the Word of God made flesh,” Bartholomew added.
He said that “through the realisation and rekindling of the ancestral dogmas and moral traditions within the Divine Eucharist, these visits become an inseparable part of ecclesiastical truth and renew the longed-for unity of the faith.”
“We, the Holy Synod, thank you for the warm welcome and believe that the coming days of our visit to the Ecumenical Throne will be filled with grace and brotherly love, bearing clear witness to our unity in the faith and the hope we share. We come here in peace and with good will, and with the good pledge of the Holy Spirit who dwells within us, and we rejoice that this is possible,” Daniil said.
“The Holy Ecumenical Patriarchate of Constantinople warms our hearts and fills them with radiant joy and gratitude,” he added.
The Bulgarian Patriarch further noted that “although we exist within separate state and canonical jurisdictions, we are and remain dogmatically united – in one Church with one shepherd and head: our God, Lord and Saviour.” Bulgarian Patriarch Officially Welcomed by Ecumenical Patriarch Bartholomew and Members of the Holy Synod of the Ecumenical Patriarchate 2025 THE NEWS FROM BULGARIA – NEWS AGENCY 2009-2025 2025-12-25 22:21:00 Latest news World news Country news Most important news latest news most important latest of the day Justice Petar Nizamov Feathers Petar Nizamov- Feathers Justice bg iustitia.bg iustitia iusticia usticia investigation Burgas Bulgaria news news of the last hour news of the day news of today Bulgaria news The news from Bulgaria blitz news top news most important most commented latest news Boyko Borisov news weather coronavirus news news weather facebook youtube facebook instagram news today news of the last minutes news today today news news bg news leading news hot news bg news site for news all news news bg news of the last hour latest latest news bg news of today news today news today news of the last hour latest news today news bg news news 24 hours news vesti bg novini news world bird bg bivol bg bivol trud bg novini latest news today novinite bg news hello bulgaria political party coat of arms delyan peevski scandalous Bulgarian National Television Free Europe Television scandal exclusive live tv live right now tv tv online tv program bg live now tv news online tv online live court Burgas court Burgas district court Burgas court Burgas district court Burgas district court Burgas appellate court Burgas prosecutor Burgas prosecutor’s office Burgas district prosecutor’s office Burgas district prosecutor’s office Burgas district prosecutor’s office Burgas district prosecutor’s office Burgas district prosecutor’s office Burgas district prosecutor’s office Prosecutor General Ivan Geshev Prosecutor Geshev Tsatsarov Ministry of Internal Affairs Burgas ODMR Burgas ODPR Burgas police Burgas district police Burgas prosecutor Tsatsarov SGS cases Varna court chairman of the SGS court decisions on civil cases decisions on cases Plovdiv court decision of the court decisions cases Varna court criminal cases district district court decisions work in the court SGS chairman of the SGS judges Sofia court post judges Plovdiv court Plovdiv judges Plovdiv Supreme Court Inspectorate Supreme Court Supreme Judicial Council lawyer lawyer criminal cases lawyer civil cases lawyer marriage cases lawyer administrative criminal law criminal process civil law civil process administrative law constitutional law
