Dear Alexios,

I have already signed it and I urge everyone here to do so.

I just wish that there was a way to view signatures like there is on other petitions I have seen online. I find it a rather strange set up, but never mind, it is for a good cause.

I take this opportunity to welcome you, our Bulgarian brother in Christ! smile

Hope to see you posting with us soon.

In Christ our Lord,
Alice

May Haghia Sofia, the Mother Church also of Kyiv and Ukraine, return to Orthodox Christian hands!

Why do you think that only Orthodox will have the feeling of a DUTY call on this?

You can count my Christian signature in as well.

my signature as well. The Hagia Sophia, nay, the entire city of Constantinople is sacred to ALL of us in the Byzantine tradition,not to mention, it is the site of one of the five Patriarchal cities of Christianiy, along with Jerusalem, Antioch, Alexandria, and Rome.
Much Love,
Jonn
