In autumn 1999 I was ordained deacon by Patriarch Teoctist, on behalf of the Patriarchal Cathedral, and became a priest in 2008, after almost 10 years of service. Continuing my ministry of deacon in the Archdiocese of Tomis, along with two other ministers in 2002 I founded the parish Saint Anthony the Great and Joseph the Confessor.
