The Mother See strongly condemns the organization of "Mass" ceremonies in churches of different dioceses by the authorities led by the Prime Minister, with forceful interventions by law enforcement agencies, gross violations of church order and rules, as well as RA Constitution and legislation, offending the spiritual feelings of believers and sowing division.
By bypassing the spiritual authority of the diocesan leader, ignoring the perceived church order and rule, the participation of any bishop in the "Liturgy" is a gross canonical violation, which happened in the Presbyterian Church of the Holy Mother of God (Seven Wounds) of Shirak Diocese.
Still abstaining from the application of strict measures, the Mother See urges the offending bishops to stop their erratic course and public speeches with false and fictitious content, to return to the canonical field following the centuries-old traditions of our Holy Church, to act exclusively in the spiritual arena and with a high awareness of the preservation of legality and unity, which is the duty, title and duty of the bishop as a servant endowed with apostolic succession. the mission.
