Archbishop's Dismissive Stance on Monks' Accusations
October 2, 2024
Archbishop George considers the accusations from the deposed monks of the Monastery of Abba Akakios to be unfounded. He stated that the Church provided them with ample opportunities to prove their innocence, but the evidence was lacking. He also dismissed claims about documents he supposedly signed and emphasized that there is no possibility of transferring the issues to another church. Ultimately, the monks will retain their monastic status but will not be able to perform sacraments.
