With heavy hearts and tear-filled eyes, we bid farewell to a guiding light, a pillar of strength, and a beloved shepherd, our honorable Metropolitan. His passing leaves a profound void in our hearts and in the fabric of our church community. Metropolitan leaves behind a legacy that will continue to inspire generations to come. His teachings will echo in our hearts, guiding us along the path of righteousness and reminding us of the profound importance of faith, love, and compassion. Though we mourn his passing, we take comfort in the knowledge that Metropolitan has been called home to be with his Lord. We trust in God's eternal promise of salvation and rejoice in the hope of a joyful reunion in His heavenly kingdom.

MAY YOUR MEMORY BE ETERNAL!
