These days I joyfully caroled our brothers in the Faroe Islands. It was a mission of the soul, during which we investigated the small but blessed Romanian community. I thank our hosts for the enthusiasm and warmth with which they opened the doors of their houses and hearts, receiving the wonderful news of the Savior’s Birth. We need more such bridges between us, the islands of Romanian spirit and the Orthodoxy of the great sea of foreign lands, which are linked between them by deeds of love and fraternity in Christ. So help us God!

With blessings and thoughts of goodness,
Your Friend and Father Bishop pilgrim,
Macarie of the Romanian Diocese of Northern Europe
