Patriarch Daniel, message in the context of the Bose Conference: St. Pachomius the Great, confessor of communion in Christtranslated

Blessed Father Daniel, Patriarch of the Romanian Orthodox Church, sent a message to the participants of the 32nd International Inter-Christian Conference of Orthodox Spirituality, held between September 8-12, 2026 at the Monastery of Bose, Italy.

The Patriarch of Romania appreciates this year's theme, the 2026 edition being dedicated to St. Cuv. Pachomius the Great.

"The legacy of Saint Pachomius teaches us that any ecclesial community - parish, monastery or family - finds its unity in Christ and is built through prayer, obedience, service and sacrificial love, and the one who serves God with faith lives according to the teaching of the Holy Scriptures", His Beatitude conveys.
