1) Archimandrite Euthymius issues an encyclical letter to the clergy, monks, and nuns of the Church of the Genuine Orthodox Christians of Greece expressing concern over issues that have caused suffering in the church for 20 years.
2) He cites departing from the traditions of St. Matthew Karpathakis, accepting ordination from Russian bishops, the departure of eight clergy, and statements made by Archbishop Andrew and others that were heretical or caused division.
3) Euthymius calls for cleansing the church of these issues, specifically several clergy who reject traditional icons and cause disputes, and urges unity in adhering to the traditions of the Catholic Church.

In Jude 17-23 Jude shifts from piling up examples of false teachers from the Old Testament to a series of practical exhortations that flow from apostolic instruction. He preserves for us what may well have been part of the apostolic catechism for the first generation of Christ-followers. In these instructions Jude exhorts the believer to deal with 3 different groups of people: scoffers who are "devoid of the Spirit", believers who have come under the influence of scoffers and believers who are so entrenched in false teaching that they need rescue and pose some real spiritual risk for the rescuer. In all of this Jude emphasizes Jesus' call to rescue straying sheep, leaving the 99 safely behind and pursuing the 1.

2. official clarification that the real text is ʺThe presence of the Struggling
Church.ʺ Thus he ignores the three subsequent corrections and explanations
given in the official periodical in the following issues: October, 1979, p. 21;
April, 1980, p. 31; and February, 1983, p. 57. After a decade since this issue
was settled, Fr. Euthymius brought it up again in his present ʺencyclicalʺ
simply in order to satisfy his demands that the Genuine Orthodox Church not
be identified with the Church of Christ.]
This is because the new theologians (according to the opinion and
support of our Church of the Genuine Orthodox Christians), since they were
lacking a means of financial support, they decided to enterprise [the Church]
as a bankrupt company, and they renamed [the Church] ʺUninnovatedʺ
[Akainotometos], and unfortunately the Hierarchs placed their seal [on this]
because the new theologians, instead of correcting themselves and repenting
for the damage that they provoked in the Church, they placed a schedule of
income for their group and they invented unorthodox ways for various clergy
to receive ʺDegreesʺ in theology, they also puffed out the minds of various
assisting garb‐bearers [rasophoroi] who have declared a war once more
against Orthodoxy. They abysmally war against and reject the tradition of
the Church, refusing to venerate the icon of the Holy Trinity (Father, Son
and Holy Spirit), the icon of the Resurrection of the Lord, replacing it with
the Descent into Hades, the icon of the Pentecost if our Lady the Theotokos
is present in it, and they accept the icon of the Nativity of Christ (with the
bathtub and the midwives). And by these means having become
iconomachs‐iconoclasts, and deniers of their faith, regardless of whether
they are girdled in priesthood. Wearing the skin of sheep, they work towards
the destruction of the flock, by writing and circulating pamphlets against the
abovementioned holy icons. They impose their heretical opinions upon those
that are submitted to them. They create civil splintering and division in the
Monasteries. They question various Fathers of the Church, particularly St.
Nicodemus of Mt. Athos, and the new pillar of Orthodoxy kyr Archbishop
Matthew Karpathakis. They provoke quarrels and disputes like what
happened last Pascha at Lebadia [Diaulia] and Bolus [Demetrias] on the day
of the Resurrection, and the worst is that they work together for the purpose
of placing canons [of penance] on Nuns of the Convent [of the Entry of the
Mother of God at Keratea] and Monks, by various Spiritual Fathers, under the
accusation that the Nuns and Monks praiseworthily insist upon keeping what
the Catholic Church upholds and preserves.
They who behave as neo‐iconoclasts are: the Hieromonks Cassian
Braun, Amphilochius Tambouras, Neophytus Tsakiroglou, Tarasius
Karagounis, and the foreign [incomer] Archpastor of the Holy Monastery of
3. the Transfiguration [at Kouvara] Hegumen Stephan Tsakiroglou, who
declares that he is a rationalist.
My beloved, by giving in to one evil, ten thousand others follow, and
the words are fulfilled to the maximum: we are at fault and for this we suffer,
not as persons, but as a Church, and, explicitly, because:
1. we are stained by the iniquity of the cheirothesia of 1971
2. the voiced blasphemy of 1979 remains
Let us not be entertained by the evil that has befallen the realms of our
Church. It is necessary for us to pray, to censure the paranoia of the
newfound iconoclasts, to request from our honorable Hierarchy, as soon as
possible, the cleansing [catharsis] from the realms of our Church, these
nonsensical iconoclasts and those who are likeminded unto them, [to
request] their condemnation, regardless of how high their position
is, because these [people] are led astray from the truth, and we must declare
in a stentorian manner, that whether alone or with many others, we will
champion the saving truth, faithful to what we have been taught, what we
have learned and what we have received, adding nothing and subtracting
nothing, whatever the Catholic Church contains and upholds undiminished
and uninnovated.
Do not fall, brethren. A winter [suffering] has befallen our Church. The
Lord our God lives, so that he is among us and he is for us.
May the prayers of the Confessors of our Faith, the older and the
newer, as well as of the newfound pillar of Orthodoxy, ever‐memorable
Archbishop Matthew the Cretan, enlighten us, bring us to our senses, and
guide all of us towards the path of salvation, which requires truth, faith and
invincible struggle.
To those who do not correctly receive the divine voices of the Holy
Teachers of the Church of God, and what has been fittingly and manifestly
explained in [the Church] by the grace of the Holy Spirit, and attempts to
misinterpret them and rotate them, they are the curse, and the wrath is upon
their shoulders.
Farewell in the Lord, my beloved brethren,
The least among all ‐ brother and concelebrant,
Archimandrite Euthymius K. Epiphaniou
