The decision was taken as Patriarch Ignatius Aphrem II, the supreme head of the Universal Syrian Orthodox Church, accepted the Jacobite Church’s request to declare Ignatius Peter III a saint.
A statement by the Jacobite Syrian Church said the decision was taken at a meeting of the Episcopal Synod, chaired by Patriarch Ignatius Aphrem II, at the Marthoman Cathedral in Mulanthuruthy during the 150th anniversary celebrations of the Mulanthuruthy Synod.
Addressing the synod, the Patriarch called for collective efforts to establish lasting peace in the Malankara Church. Hailing from Mosul, Ignatius Peter III was the Patriarch of Antioch and head of the Syriac Orthodox Church from 1872 until he died in 1894.
