Dear Brother Archons,

On this, the Patronal Feastday of the Apostolic See of St. Andrew, we offer Thanksgiving to our Lord and Savior Jesus Christ for the worldwide spiritual leadership of His All Holiness Ecumenical Patriarch Bartholomew the 270th successor of St. Andrew the First Called Apostle, for the guidance of our spiritual father in America and Exarch Archbishop Demetrios, for the support of the venerable Metropolitans of the Eparchial Synod and for the wholehearted devotion of the Archons of the Ecumenical Patriarchate to the Holy and Great Mother Church of Constantinople.

How appropriate it is on the Feastday of St. Andrew that we receive our confiscated property back and that legal personality for the Ecumenical Patriarchate in the Republic of Turkey is being established. These are great blessings from St. Andrew, in the words of His All Holiness!

The Archons of America will continue to advance the sacred cause of religious freedom for the Great Church of Christ until the day the bells of freedom can be heard around the world emanating from the Phanar.

In the Service of the Ecumenical Patriarchate,

Anthony J. Limberakis, MD
