Ecumenical Patriarch Bartholomew led the Divine Liturgy at the Holy Patriarchal Church on the Feast of the Ypapanti on Sunday, February 2, 2025.
Also in attendance were Metropolitans Chrysostomos of Myra and Theodore of Seleucia, along with Archon of the Great Church of Christ, Alkiviadis Stefanis, Civil Governor of Mount Athos, accompanied by his family, the faithful of Constantinople, and pilgrims from various parts of the world.
It is worth noting that Patriarch Bartholomew had a private audience with Mr. Stefanis last Friday, and the Civil Governor collaborated with the Synodal Committee of Holy Mount Athos.
