I take this opportunity to encourage all Archons of the Ecumenical Patriarchate in America to attend a symposium sponsored by Fordham University entitled:

Religious Freedom in Turkey: The Case of the Ecumenical Patriarchate

Wednesday, September 16, 2009 at 6:30 PM

Lincoln Center Campus of Fordham University School of Law, Room 430 B/C 140 West 62nd Street, New York, NY (between Columbus and Amsterdam)

Featured Speakers

Prof. George Demacopoulos, PhD, Co-Founding Director, Orthodox Christian Studies Program, Fordham University

Archon Emanuel Demos, General Counsel Greek Orthodox Archdiocese of America and member Archon Legal Committee

and Prof. Ruti G. Teitel, New York Law School; Human Rights Watch, Europe, Steering Committee

Admission is free

A robust Archon presence at this symposium would be most appropriate and would be reflective of our deep appreciation to Fr. Joseph M. McShane, S.J., President of Fordham University, for the University’s strong support of the Ecumenical Patriarchate and His All Holiness Ecumenical Patriarch Bartholomew.

If you plan to attend, kindly RSVP to lawreligion@law.fordham.edu or by phone at 212-636-7699 or by visiting law.fordham.edu/lawreligion by September 15.

I look forward to seeing you at the symposium.
