Vervolgens werden ze ontvangen in de Troonzaal, waar broederlijke begroetingen, toespraken en geschenken werden uitgewisseld. Aansluitend werd er een diner ter ere van de bezoekers gehouden.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Op woensdag 6 mei, het feest van Mid-Pinksteren, werd in de Kathedraal van de Heilige Aartsengelen in Brussel een pontificale Goddelijke Liturgie gevierd, gecelebreerd door drie bisschoppen. De viering werd voorgegaan door metropoliet Nikolaas van Philippoupolis, met medewerking van metropoliet Antonius en bisschop Joachim van Apollonia, omringd door de geestelijkheid van het aartsbisdom, terwijl metropoliet Athenagoras van Belgi\u00eb in het altaar bad.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Na de Goddelijke Liturgie verwelkomde Zijne Eminentie Metropoliet Athenagoras van Belgi\u00eb de bisschoppen van het Bulgaarse Patriarchaat en hun delegatie en feliciteerde hen met het feest van de heilige Georgios, een nationale feestdag in Bulgarije. Hij benadrukte dat een dergelijke liturgische viering de sacramentele eenheid manifesteert die bestaat tussen de Moederkerk van Constantinopel en het Bulgaarse Patriarchaat. Deze uiting van eenheid is meer dan ooit nodig in de hele orthodoxe wereld, met name in deze moeilijke tijden waarin orthodoxe christenen andere orthodoxe christenen bestrijden \u2013 een situatie die hij onaanvaardbaar noemde. Hij merkte ook op dat het feest van de heilige Georgios tevens de feestdag is van de Bulgaarse strijdkrachten en dat het leger tegenwoordig niet meer bestaat om oorlog te voeren, maar om de vrede te bewaren.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Vervolgens sprak metropoliet Nikolaas van Plovdiv over de vreugde van de paastijd, het grote feest van Pinksteren en het martelaarschap en de moed van de heilige grootmartelaar Georgios, die in het bijzonder wordt vereerd door de Bulgaarse Kerk, die, hoewel zij in 1968 de nieuwe kalender heeft aangenomen, het feest van de heilige liturgisch blijft vieren volgens de oude kalender. Hij bedankte de metropoliet van Belgi\u00eb voor zijn gastvrijheid en broederlijke liefde en nodigde hem uit om de kerkprovincie Philippupolis te bezoeken.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Diezelfde middag werd er een receptie georganiseerd door de Bulgaarse militaire missie op het NAVO-hoofdkwartier. Tijdens hun bezoek brachten de militairen ook een bezoek aan de middeleeuwse stad Gent.<\/p>\n\n\n\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<style>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t.flickr-img-responsive
