"Attention, another lie!
His Beatitude Metropolitan Onufry served a vigil at the Lavra, which is reported on the official website of the UOC. And tomorrow he will serve the Liturgy in the Lavra.
His Beatitude Met. Onufry is neither flying anywhere, nor running away, nor preparing anyone for a riot. He is calm, he is praying, he is serving.
"Why to lie so blatantly and write offensive things about His Beatitude? Nothing sacred among the people," explained the priest.
