Incident at Decani Monastery


On behalf of the Decani Monastery Relief Fund

By + Very Reverend Archimandrite Nektarios Serfes, President

The Decani Monastery (Kosovo) has been threatened by four men with guns and an AK 47 assault rifle on the road leading up to the monastery. They were captured as they reached the first check point.

Keep in mind there are three check points before one can enter the holy monastery (see photo below). Let us pray that this incident does not happen again.

In the meantime, there are denials of who these individuals are who caused this incident.  However, what is important now is that no one was seriously injured, and that the monks at the monastery were protected and are safe.

Thank you for your prayers for the Decani fathers and the faithful in Kosovo!

Peace to your soul,

+ Very Archimandrite Nektarios

President of the Decani Monastery Relief Fund

Who prays for you and with you
