Critical Situation for the Suspended Metropolitan Tychikos
November 13, 2026
The situation of the suspended Metropolitan Tychikos is critical, as his case will be examined by the Holy Synod in December. There is a possibility of his removal if he does not sign the declaration of faith that has been proposed to him. Doubts have been raised about his willingness to cooperate with the Holy Synod, especially after his request for the minutes of an earlier Synod. If he signs the declaration, he may need to relocate to the Archdiocese. Archbishop Georgios stated that all clergy serve where the Church assigns them.
