His Holiness Arcbishop Tawadros II


Metropolitan Seraphim sharing a moment with the newly ordained Patriach of Alexandria, Bishop Tawadros II.

I would like to congratulate Bishop Tawadros II on his elevation to the seat of St. Mark and becoming the 118th Patriarch of the city of Alexandria and of all of Egypt and Africa. May God grant you many years and peaceful times to lead the church. God has truly chosen you to lead the church. Continue to pray for us and for all Orthodox Christians in the world and especially for the peace of the One Holy Catholic and Apostolic Church of God.

The following is the link to the enthronement. The beauty of the Orthodox Church was exemplified in this service. All Orthodox Christians had representatives present at the ordination and this speaks to how Orthodoxy is one Holy Catholic and an Apostolic Church. The taste of honey cannot compare to the taste of the Christian life that we are called to live out everyday!

Look at the love that our sister churches have for each other if you watch from the 4 hour and 50 minute mark:
