The Ecumenical Patriarch Bartholomew will preside over the celebration of St. Paraskevi on Friday at the Romanian Church of St. Paraskevi in the Hasköy district of Constantinople.
Matins will begin at 9:00 a.m., followed by the Divine Liturgy.
The church was rebuilt from scratch in 1692 and has been the church of the Romanian Orthodox community in Turkey since 2004.
