The Romanian Patriarch Asks for Prayer for Peace in the Caucasus
Within the context of armed confrontations in the Caucasus, His Beatitude Daniel, Patriarch of the Romanian Orthodox Church, asked all Orthodox Christian believers to pray for peace in this area of the world.
In his address at the Saint Pantaleon in Lacul Sarat, Braila County, on August 10 2008, His Beatitude expressed his hope that the two sides involved in the conflict, two countries with an Orthodox majority, will return to the negotiations table within the spirit of Christ's love:
'In the Caucasus, between the armies of two countries which have Orthodox majorities, there is currently a war. We pray for peace, understanding, and for Christ our Savior, the Lord of Peace, to enlighten the leaders of Christian people, in such a way that they become peacemakers and solve problems peacefully, through dialog, through reciprocal understanding, remembering that each of our deeds can bring joy or sorrow, can bring life or death.'
At the same time, His Beatitude Daniel, Patriarch of the Romanian Orthodox Church, has renewed his appeal for charity towards those stranded by the floods which recently hit our country. His Beatitude thinks that this is a spiritual duty of each believer.
