FOINI — Abp. Georgios of Cyprus said he expects the Ecumenical Patriarchate in Constantinople to reach a decision by the end of September on the appeal of former Metropolitan of Paphos, Tychikos.
Speaking from the Holy Monastery of Trooditissa, the archbishop stressed that he does not wish to preempt the judgment of the Patriarchate. However, he expressed confidence that the decision will affirm the ruling of the Holy Synod of the Church of Cyprus, which defrocked Met. Tychikos from the Metropolis of Paphos.
Previously, UOJ reported on claims that Abp. Georgios will begin commemorating Met. Onuphry of the Ukrainian Orthodox Church if Pat. Bartholomew does not rule in the case of Met. Tychikos the way that he wants.
