A council of charity priests from the Archdiocese of Bucharest consecrated on Saturday a trinity built in the courtyard of the Clinical Hospital for Infectious and Tropical Diseases "Dr. Victor Babeș" in Bucharest, near the chapel that serves the medical institution.

The council led by Father Alin Nica, the coordinator of the charity priests of the Archdiocese of Bucharest, included Father Valentin Gabriel Mănăilă, minister of the chapel, as well as other charity priests from the diocese.

The liturgical program began with the Holy Liturgy, followed by a Parastas for the members of the community, patients and medical personnel who passed on to the Lord, then the service of the Sanctification of the water and the Sanctification of the triplets. Members of the chapel community and hospital workers attended.

"The event was included in the agenda of missionary events and services for the year 2026", reported Father Alin Nica. "The goal was to expand the liturgical heritage of the chapel and to constitute a form of testimony in the hospital."
