Glory forever!

Thank you for posting this, Father! We should let CNN know how much we value this important coverage.

I believe 60 Minutes rebroadcast at the beginning of August the December 2009 program they had with His All-Holiness which is archived on the patriarchate website.

Prayers for His All-Holiness as he so courageously speaks up about the critical situation of the Orthodox in Turkey, and consequently for the entire Greek Orthodox Patriarchate. Thanks be to God for major venues like CNN and 60 Minutes for bringing this story to a national audience.

I tried to find the program on my TV a couple of hours ago and it looks like I don't have CNN International in my cable lineup.

I'm suspecting that the program could be Video: Bartholomew visits Imbros clip on the web site lower left margin. Googling "World's Untold Stories CNN" as it's called on the OCA site I got this.
