In particular, at the moment on the Facebook page of the "hierarch" of the OCU, there is information about visiting two monasteries – Xenophontos and Vatopedi.

The visit to the Vatopedi Monastery is not commented on, the “hierarch” of the OCU wrote about the reception of schismatics at Xenophontos: “The Xenophontos Monastery. The hegumen of the monastery, Archimandrite Alexy, as always hospitably accepting...”

In addition, the ex-metropolitan posted a photo that shows that he presented to the hegumen of Xenophontos, Archimandrite Alexy, the icon of St. Luke (Voino-Yasenetsky).
