His All-Holiness Ecumenical Patriarch Bartholomew
Ecumenical Patriarch Bartholomew, a modern apostle of peace and love, is the head of the world’s second largest and oldest Christian faith community. Based in a Muslim country on the fault-line between East and West, Christianity and Islam, the developed and developing worlds, His All-Holiness is, by tradition, the 269th successor to an actual apostle of Jesus Christ, St Andrew, the first-called apostle and brother of St. Peter.
