Believers of the Philippian, Naples and Thassos Metropolis of the Church of Greece continue to protest against the arrival of the head of the OCU on the island and distribute leaflets warning believers that the head of the OCU, Epiphanius Dumenko, is not a canonical clergyman, writes the UOJ.
“Attention: the arrival of a schismatic on the island of Thassos!
“Schismatics remain schismatics, and the only canonical Church in Ukraine is the Church headed by Metropolitan Onuphry,” the leaflet quotes a 2019 letter from Athogorsk monks to the Holy Kinot of the Holy Mountain.
The Orthodox remind that Epiphanius Dumenko was “ordained” by the excommunicated Filaret Denisenko.
