The hierarch of the Jerusalem Patriarchate attended the episcopal consecration in the Church of Alexandria

“Africa does not need defenders and self-proclaimed saviors,” Patriarch Theodore, head of the Church of Alexandria, Patriarch Theodore, said during the ordination of Bishop Gulu Nektarios.

According to orthodoxianewsagency, in addition to the hierarchs of the Church of Alexandria, the Church of Greece and the Patriarchate of Constantinople, Archbishop Damian of Sinai (head of autonomy within the Jerusalem Patriarchate) was also present at the ordination of Bishop Nectarios.

During the consecration, Bishop Gulu “also recalled with tenderness the deep impression that remained in his soul from meeting the blessed elder Jonah, the great philhellene and Greek scholar, who helped him spiritually and materially spread his wings on a long journey to Greece, spoke about gratitude, which his heart feeds towards Almighty God, and of the great blessing and honor that he said he could not imagine in his life, saying: “I was a poor country boy from suffering Africa, where most houses do not have electricity and running water “. He also thanked the Archbishop of Athens and All Hellas, Mr. Jerome, for the love and trust he showed him, having promised the Patriarch of Alexandria that he would fight with all his might for the Church of Christ.”

Earlier it was reported that Archbishop Damian of Sinai met with Patriarch Theodore in Cairo.
