DECR chairman sends greetings to Primate of Romanian Orthodox Church on his Name Day

Metropolitan Hilarion of Volokolamsk, chairman of the Moscow Patriarchate’s Department for External Church Relations, greeted His Beatitude Daniel, Archbishop of Bucharest, Metropolitan of Muntenia and Dobrudgea, Patriarch of Romania, with his Name Day.

Your Beatitude,

Please accept my heartfelt greetings with your Name Day.

Imitating in virtues your heavenly patron, Holy Prophet Daniel, you exert efforts and use your God-given talents to strengthen in faith and spiritually enlighten the Romanian people. Your spirit-filled Primatial homilies teach your flock to strive to obtain the salvation which is in Christ Jesus with eternal glory (2 Tim 2:10).

I wholeheartedly wish to Your Beatitude God’s unceasing help in your labours for the good of the Church and the people of Romania, as well as health, salvation and every success for many peaceful years of your Patriarchal ministry.

With respectful love in Christ,

+Hilarion
