Although Pope St. Sylvester I did not attend the council in person, he exercised his authority by sending two legates who played a key role in guiding the deliberations. This affirmed the unique and foundational role of the Bishop of Rome, the successor of St. Peter, in preserving the unity and orthodoxy of the Church. The popeβs involvement highlighted the essential principle that the Church is apostolic and guided by the Petrine ministryβa principle that would be confirmed and deepened in later councils.
The Council of Nicaea also established the method for determining the date of Easter and set a precedent for future ecumenical councils to safeguard the true faith. It stands as a lasting symbol of the Churchβs mission: to remain united in truth, grounded in apostolic tradition, and led by the pope as the visible sign of communion.
Its legacy continues to shape the doctrine, worship, and identity of the Catholic and Orthodox Churches, as well as many Protestant communities.
As we celebrate this 1700th anniversary during the Jubilee Year 2025, the Church invites all the faithful to renew their commitment to the Nicene faith, to pray for Christian unity, and to stand firm in the truth handed down from the apostles.

I have no inside knowledge of a potential stock listing of the popular anti-Whatsapp messaging app, Telegram. But I know this much, judging by most people I talk to, especially crypto investors, if Telegram ever went public, people would gobble it up. I know I would. Iβm waiting for it. So is Sergei Sergienko, who claims he owns $800,000 of Telegramβs pre-initial coin offering (ICO) tokens. βIf Telegram does a SPAC IPO, there would be demand for this issue. It would probably outstrip the interest we saw during the ICO. Why? Because as of right now Telegram looks like a liberal application that can accept anyone - right after WhatsApp and others have turn on the censorship,β he says.
How Does Bitcoin Work?
Bitcoin is built on a distributed digital record called a blockchain. As the name implies, blockchain is a linked body of data, made up of units called blocks that contain information about each and every transaction, including date and time, total value, buyer and seller, and a unique identifying code for each exchange. Entries are strung together in chronological order, creating a digital chain of blocks. βOnce a block is added to the blockchain, it becomes accessible to anyone who wishes to view it, acting as a public ledger of cryptocurrency transactions,β says Stacey Harris, consultant for Pelicoin, a network of cryptocurrency ATMs. Blockchain is decentralized, which means itβs not controlled by any one organization. βItβs like a Google Doc that anyone can work on,β says Buchi Okoro, CEO and co-founder of African cryptocurrency exchange Quidax. βNobody owns it, but anyone who has a link can contribute to it. And as different people update it, your copy also gets updated.β
