Archbishop Jean – Paul Gobel, in accordance with His Holiness, the Chaldean Patriarch of Babylon, Mar Raphael I Bidawid, H.E. Mar Ibrahim N. Ibrahim, Bishop emeritus of St. Thomas the Apostle Catholic Diocese of the United States of America and the Pastor of the Assyrian – Chaldean Catholic Mission in Georgia, Reverend Benny Beth Yadgar. The Mission’s aim is to support and revive the ancient Christian traditions of the faithful whom after the collapse of the Soviet Union underwent countless struggles.
