To His Holiness and Beatitude Iliya II
Catholicos-Patriarch of All Georgia
Your Holiness and Beatitude
Dear Brother and Concelebrant beloved in the Lord,
I wholeheartedly greet you on the occasion of the commemoration day of St. Nina Equal-to-the-Apostles, the enlightener of Georgia.
Full of spiritual wisdom, peace-loving, considerate, submissive, full of mercy and good fruit, impartial and sincere (James 3:17), you continue the cause of St. Nina in the blessed land of Iberia.
From my heart I wish that Your Holiness and Beatitude may continue as convincingly to bear witness before our contemporaries to the intransient truths of the Gospel and may the Saviour of the world strengthen you in this endeavour.
With brotherly love in Christ,
+ KIRILL
