Gregory VII of Constantinople (Greek:Γρηγόριος Ζʹ; secular nameGregorios Zervoudakis (Ζερβουδάκης);^[1] 21 September 1850 – 17 November 1924) wasEcumenical Patriarch of Constantinople from 1923 until 1924.

Biography

[edit]

He was born in Stavri (Apollonia) ofSifnos. He studied at theTheological School of Halki, from which he graduated in 1882, after submitting a thesis entitled "On the Authenticity of the Four Gospels". He served in the Diocese of Rhodes as deacon and as chancellor (protosygelos).

In 1887 he was elected bishop of Myreo; in 1892 metropolitan ofSerres; in 1909 metropolitan ofKyzikos; and in 1913 metropolitan ofChalcedon. During theAsia Minor campaign, when theEcumenical Patriarchate of Constantinople decided to sever relations with the government of theOttoman Empire, Gregory VII, disagreeing with this decision, resigned as president of the National Joint Council and from theHoly Synod and retired to his Metropolis.

After the resignation of PatriarchMeletius IV of Constantinople on 20 September 1923, the Synod of the Patriarchate was convened for the first election of a Patriarch after the signing of theTreaty of Lausanne. TheGovernment of Turkey set the inviolable condition that the person elected must haveTurkish citizenship. On 6 December 1923, only those bishops residing in Constantinople gathered for the election of a new Patriarch. The bishops selected Gregory VII, who had not been involved in secular political issues and had even maintained good relations with the Turkish authorities. After his election, Gregory VII sent a letter of recognition to the Turkish Government inAnkara.Papa Eftim I, the head of theTurkish Orthodox Church, and his followers opposed the election.

Gregory VII was enthroned on 6 December 1923. On 19 February 1924, the Synodal Court deposed Papa Eftim I for "faction and attitude". On 10 May 1924, Metropolitan Vasilios (Komvopoulos) ofChaldea, who had organized churches in America without the permission of the Ecumenical Patriarchate, was also deposed. With his actions towards the Greek Government, Gregory VII tried to avoid the expulsion of clergy based on the agreed exchange of populations. In 1924 he recognized theautocephaly of thePolish Orthodox Church. He established the Metropolises of the Princes' Islands, of Central Europe, and of Australia.

In September 1924, Gregory VII developedgallstones that developed into obstructive jaundice that could not be treated. He died on 17 November of the same year.
