Patriarch Daniel welcomes faculty colleagues at his patriarchal residence

Faculty colleagues visited His Beatitude Patriarch Daniel at the Patriarchal Residence on Wednesday, June 7, 2023.

Clergy who graduated from Sibiu’s Faculty of Orthodox Theology “St. Andrew Șaguna” in 1974 visited the Patriarchal Residence accompanied by their spouses.

The day’s program began with the veneration of the relics of St. Demetrius the New, kept inside the Patriarchal Cathedral, and continued with a guided visit to the Patriarchal Palace.

Important names of Romanian Orthodoxy were part of the 1970-74 promotion of the University Degree Theological Institute in Sibiu, currently “St. Andrew Șaguna” Faculty of Orthodox Theology, including His Beatitude Patriarch Daniel and His Eminence Metropolitan Serafim of Germany and Northern Europe, who could not attend this year’s meeting.
