Archbishop Anastasios of Albania visits Saint Vladimir’s Seminary

His Beatitude, Metropolitan Tikhon, received an unexpected call today around noon saying that Archbishop Anastasios of Albania, accompanied by Metropolitan John of Korca, would be at Saint Vladimir’s for a surprise brief visit at around 2:30. So we dropped other matters and drove to the seminary. Metropolitan Tikhon, Archbishop Nikon, Father John Behr, Father Chad Hatfield and a small seminary delegation greeted Archbishop Anastasios, brought him to the chapel and then spent more than an hour having tea and illuminating and wide-ranging conversation.
