Paisios, the 4-month-old son of Yusuf Nicholas Papasoğlu, Father of St. Nicholas Greek Orthodox Church in Iskenderun, was baptized in a ceremony attended by five priests.
The baptism ceremony was accompanied by the Deputy Patriarch and Archimandrite Pavlus Orduluoğlu, the Iskenderun St. Nicholas Orthodox Church Father Dimitri Yıldırım, the Antakya Saints Peter and Paul Orthodox Church Father Dimitri Doğum, Altınözü Church Fathers Cebrail Kuşoğlu and his uncle, Father Abdullah Yuhanna Papasoğlu, who is also the godfather of the little baby.
The baptism ceremony of the little baby, named after St. Paisios, was quite magnificent with the participation of six fathers, including his father and uncle. In addition to the cocktail held in the church garden after the baptism ceremony, the icon of St. Paisios was presented to all the guests.
Iskenderun St. Nicholas Greek Orthodox Church Father Yusuf Nicholas Papasoğlu and his wife Habibe Papasoğlu, who thanked those who attended the baptism ceremony, had very emotional moments at the ceremony.
While we wish little Paisios to have happy and beautiful days throughout his life, we also congratulate Father Yusuf Nicholas Papasoğlu and Mother Habibe Papasoğlu. (SAT-7 Türk/İlyas Edip TERBİYELİ-İskenderun)
