On the Election of the New Patriarch

Upon hearing the news of the election of the new Patriarch, Mr. Athenagoras, we pray that the Lord may enlighten him, so that he may prove worthy of the Throne which he has been called to occupy, and may labor for the good of the Mother Church, which was honored and adorned by hierarchs of the stature of [St. John] Chrysostomos, [St.] Gregory [the Theologian], etc.
