The Holy Synod proclaims that Mr Scheetz ( Fr. Aftimios ) is no longer under the protection of
the Holy Church.
The Holy Synod binds him to the following Canon XV (15):
If any presbyter, or deacon, or any other of the list of the clergy, shall leave his own parish, and go into
another, and having entirely forsaken his own, shall make his abode in the other parish without the
permission of his own bishop, we ordain that he shall no longer perform Divine Services; more
especially if his own bishop having exhorted him to return he has refused to do so, and persists in his
disorderly conduct. But let him communicate there as a layman.
The Holy Synod also binds any Bishops that will accept him with the following Canon XVI (16):
If, however, the bishop, with whom any such persons are staying, shall disregard the command that
they are to cease from performing Divine Offices, and shall receive them as clergymen, let him be
excommunicated, as a teacher of disorder.
