His Eminence to Lead Delegation to the Ecumenical Patriarchate

Archbishop Spyridon will lead a delegation of Church officials and members of the Archdiocese Presbyters Council on a pilgrimage to the Ecumenical Patriarchate from March 27 to April 1.

The Archbishop will discuss with Ecumenical Patriarch Bartholomew his upcoming visit to the United States and the recent Archdiocesan Council and Holy Synod meetings held in New York.

The Presbyters Council members also will have an audience with His All Holiness and will meet with other hierarchs of the Ecumenical Throne.

The Ecumenical Patriarch plans to make a three-week visit to the United States Oct. 19-Nov. 10. He will visit many Orthodox communities in cities throughout the nation and take part in a number of Pan Orthodox events during his stay.
