During his All Holiness' address to Pope Francis, he referred to Saints Gregory Nazianzen, John Chrysostom and Basil the Great, Fathers to both our churches because they are truly one. Here is a photograph of the shrines of the Three Holy Hierarchs, St Basil the Great, St Gregory Nazianzen and St John Chrysostom (the last two restored to the Orthodox Church by St John Paul ten years ago), taken in the Patriarchal Church of St George by our Vice Chairman on his own recent visit to the Ecumenical Patriarch to inform him of the joint efforts of the Society and of the Fellowship of St Alban & St Sergius to foster dialogue and close collaboration between the Catholic and Orthodox Churches in England.
He told Fr Mark, "I walk with you. And I follow you with prayer and encouragement."
