Before the liturgy at the Cathedral of St Minas, the Ecumenical Patriarch addressed a large crowd of faithful gathered outside the church characterizing Crete as the bridge linking the cultures of the three continents converging at the Mediterranean Basin and pointed out that Apostle Paul had included Crete in his grandiose apostolic vision.

Ecumenical Patriarch Bartholomew and the Primates accompanying him also visited Gortina, the seat of Apostle Titos, where they will tour the Panagia Keras Church. They also visited St Apostle Church in Spileo and attended a luncheon hosted by the local government.

The final session of the Symposium on Apostle Paul will be held later in the afternoon to be followed by a formal dinner hosted by Archbishop Irineos of Crete and local authorities.
