Discussion on the Appointment of a Locum Tenens in the Holy Synod
January 21, 2025
The Holy Synod is discussing the appointment of a Locum Tenens for the archiepiscopal throne, rather than automatically assigning this role to the Bishop of Paphos. Archbishop Georgios is considering the situation, while concerns arise regarding Bishop Tychikos' positions. Tychikos maintains a detached observer role in meetings, and troubling reports about his behavior are circulating. The Locum Tenens role is regarded as important, as it entails managing the Church during a vacancy.
