May God bless them both, and I hope we see more exchanges like this between the patriarchs. Congratulations from Porphyrius to Daniel sound sincere and direct.

بشارة خوري

Yes, the congratulations seem really sincere, especially since they came from Porphyrius, who usually likes direct speech. But I hope to see this exchange extend to bishops and priests between churches, not only at the level of patriarchs. Have you seen a similar exchange between our church and the Romanian church before?

بشارة خوري

Yes, congratulations are sincere and direct, as I said. I wish some Romanian priests would visit us in Homs and join us in praying and baking together, not just talking. Have you heard of any previous visit of Roman priests to Syria?

Yes, good news. Real visits are much better than congratulations on paper. I once heard about a Romanian priest who visited the Monastery of Mar Musa years ago and joined the monks in bread and prayer, but it was not a major official visit. Have you tried calling someone directly through friends in Romania?

Yes, Mirna, personal visits really stay in the heart more. I heard about the monks in Mar Moussa mentioning this Roman priest until now because he lived with them simple days. I once tried to invite a Romanian nun through a friend there, and she actually came after a year and a half, but it was a very peaceful visit. How did you know about this story?
