Historic: Pope Leo and Ecumenical Patriarchs Pray the Nicene Creed 1,700 Years Later in Turkey

Pope Leo XIV and Ecumenical Patriarch Bartholomew I unite in a historic recitation of the Nicene-Constantinopolitan Creed at the ancient site of Nicaea (Iznik, Turkey). Marking the 1,700th anniversary of the Council of Nicaea, this ecumenical prayer service symbolizes a powerful step toward Christian unity, with leaders from Catholic, Orthodox, and other traditions joining in faith. Held on November 28, 2025, during Pope Leo's first apostolic journey abroad, the event highlights reconciliation amid global conflicts. The joint declaration emphasizes fraternity, peace, and rejecting violence in religion's name. Choirs in Latin, Greek, and Arabic filled the air, as the leaders lit candles overlooking the ruins of St. Neophytos Basilica. This moment echoes Jesus' prayer for unity (John 17:21) and reaffirms the Creed's enduring role in professing one God, Father, Son, and Holy Spirit. No "filioque" was added, respecting Orthodox tradition in this gesture of dialogue.
