[Father Elisbar, a priest...]
Father Elisbar, a priest of the Georgian Orthodox Church, pins a momento from the Presiding Bishop on the shirt of a boy at Sioni Cathedral in Tbilisi. The Presiding Bishop carried a number of tokens of friendship -- the seal of his office, a pin from the Detroit Convention, and the Episcopal Church seal done in beads by the women at Rosebud Reservation in South Dakota, commissioned by Episcopal Church Women.
