 Historic Meeting of December 26, 2000

In the occasion of the celebrations of the New Millenium, representatives of 14 Orthodox churches met in Constantinople.

Jerusalem, Serbia, Romania, Bulgaria, Georgia, Cyprus, Greece, Poland,
Albania, the Czech Republic, Slovakia, Finland and Estonia.  

The meeting took place at the Byzantine-era Church of Hagia Sophia in
Iznik, Turkey -- a city known as ancient Nicaea and the place where early
Christians spelled out the tenets of their faith in the Nicene Creed of 325. 

On Monday, the patriarchs celebrated a Christmas service at the Greek
Orthodox Cathedral of St. George in Constaninople (Istanbul).
