The celebration of St. Paraskevi will be presided over by the Ecumenical Patriarch Bartholomew on Friday at the Romanian Church of St. Paraskevi in the Hasköy district of Constantinople.
Matins will start at 9:00 a.m., followed by the Divine Liturgy.
The church, rebuilt from scratch in 1692, has served as the church of the Romanian Orthodox community in Turkey since 2004.
