CHURCH RIFT Patriarchate said to reject compromise in letter to Athens Istanbul-based Ecumenical Patriarch Vartholomaios has rejected a compromise proposed by the Church of Greece to end the bitter dispute between the two churches over jurisdiction of some 30 sees in northern Greece, sources quoted by the Athens News Agency said yesterday. According to an ANA report, Vartholomaios has written to Archbishop Christodoulos insisting that the Church of Greece should send to him for approval lists of candidates for three vacant northern Greek sees. The Patriarchate and the Church of Greece had agreed on a brief truce pending the March 7 Greek parliamentary elections in their dispute which, as Vartholomaios has warned, could develop into a formal separation. |
