HIS ALL HOLINESS BARTHOLOMEW  I
                                    ECUMENICAL PATRIARCH AND
ARCHBISHOP OF CONSTANTINOPLE AND NEW ROME

The Church in the United States is blessed to have His All Holiness Ecumenical Patriarch Bartholomew, visiting our land beginning  Saturday, October 23rd 2021! All the Orthodox Churchs in the area are encouraged to enthusiastically welcome His All Holiness when he arrives at the St. Regis Hotel, 923 16th and, K St NW, Washington, DC 20006. You are asked to assemble outside the hotel by 3:30 PM.

His All Holiness was enthroned as Successor to St. Andrew the Apostle, the First-Called, in 1991, as the 270^th Ecumenical Patriarch.  It is a blessing for the Greek Orthodox Church of America to greet her Archpastor and Shepherd, and for our brothers and sisters in the faith from other communities to welcome him who carries on the Great Ministry of St. Andrew, brother of St. Peter the Apostle.

Please make every effort to join us in welcoming His All Holiness once again to the United and in praying for him and his universal ministry to keep the Church of Christ united around her Lord and Savior.    Eis polla eti, Despota!
