Archbishop Theodosius of Sebastia (Atalla Nizar Khanna), who carries out archpastoral ministry in the Jerusalem Orthodox Church, gave an interview to RIA Novosti, in which he expressed concern over the situation of Christians living in Palestine. Vladyka Theodosius noted that it was Christians who have always been 'pioneers in cultural, intellectual, creative life' in the Holy Land and throughout the Middle East - and to this day they continue to carry this mission even at the present time, when the socio-political situation in the country, to put it mildly, leaves much to be desired. “Christians in Palestine are not a minority, not a community, not guests, not passers-by, they come from our country. Palestinian Christians are proud of their belonging to their church, just as they are proud of their belonging to the country, ”recalled Archbishop Theodosius and recalled that it was from Palestine, this cradle of Christianity, that the faith of Christ spread throughout the world.
