Your Grace Dr. Rowan Williams, Archbishop of Canterbury and Primate of all England, most beloved and dear brother in Christ God: 
Grace and peace from God the Father and our Lord Jesus Christ be with your Grace.

It is with great sorrow that we learned of the tragic bombings that occurred in the city of London, taking the lives of at least 50 individuals and injuring so many more. In your understandable grief and sorrow, we wish to convey to you and to the family members of the victims our personal condolences and those of the Ecumenical Patriarchate.  May God grant rest to the souls of the victims of this most inhumane act of cruelty, and may He grant you the strength and wisdom to guide your flock through this time of crises. 

Invoking upon you the infinite mercy and love of Almighty God, we express to you once again our heartfelt sympathy and assure you of our continued prayers for you and for the most beloved people of England.

At the Patriarchate, 8 July 2005

Your beloved brother in Christ,

Archbishop of Constantinople,
New Rome and Ecumenical Patriarch
