Bishop Athenagoras (Peckstadt) of Sinope
His Grace Bishop Athenagoras (Peckstadt) of Sinope, (in the world Yves Peckstadt) was born on the 24th March 1962 in Ghent (Belgium), as a son of Archpriest Ignace Peckstadt (Orthodox parish of Ghent) and Marie-Thérèse Janssens. After some years of law school at the University of Ghent, he joins the University of Thessaloniki (Greece), due to a scholarship granted by the Ecumenical Patriarchate. He successfully graduates with a Master degree in Theology. He continues his studies at the Ecumenical Institute of Bossey (University of Geneva), graduating with the thesis entitled "History of Orthodox presence in Benelux and its importance to the ecumenical movement".
In November 1989 he was ordained deacon by Metropolitan Bartholomew of Philadelphia, presently the Ecumenical Patriarch, who also gave him the name of Athenagoras in honor of the great Patriarch Athenagoras. Later, Metropolitan Panteleimon of Belgium ordains him as priest. In September 1996 he is promoted as Archimandrite and then Epsicopal Vicar of the Archdiocese (Benelux). For more than five years he functioned as religion teacher in different high schools in Flanders. At the beginning of 1994, Metropolitan Panteleimon nominated him responsible producer for the Belgium radio and television Orthodox broadcasts in French and Flemish. In the same year, the Holy Synod of the Ecumenical Patriarchate nominated him as collaborator of the newly established Liaison Office of the Orthodox Church to the European Union, located in Brussels. By 1995, deacon Athenagoras Peckstadt had founded with the blessing of Metropolitan Panteleimon, an Orthodox parish in Bruges, under the patronage of the Saint Emperors Constantine and Helen, where he served as the first Dean.
