The Ecumenical Patriarch Departed from Stockholm

On the morning of Monday, August 25, 2025, His All-Holiness Ecumenical Patriarch Bartholomew concluded His visit to Stockholm.

Prior to His departure, accompanied by the Members of the Patriarchal Entourage, He visited the Skogskyrkogården Cemetery, where He held a memorial service (trisagion) at the grave of the late Metropolitan Pavlos, former Metropolitan of Amaseia, for the repose of his soul.

Following this, He proceeded with His Entourage to the Stockholm Airport in the Bromma area, from where — after once again expressing His gratitude to the local Metropolitan Cleopas for the hospitality extended, conveying the Patriarchal satisfaction with the work being carried out, and bestowing His Patriarchal blessing and wishes — He departed for Rimini, Italy.
