Greece: Churches Closed Doors as Orthodox Holy Week starts in Coronavirus times - Κλειστές οι Εκκλησίες για τους πιστούς καθ' όλη την Μεγάλη Εβδομάδα του Πάσχα λόγω των μέτρων ενάντια στην εξάπλωση του κορωνοϊού. Μεγάλη Δευτέρα και ένα διαφορετικό Πάσχα εδώ και εκατοντάδες χρόνια ξεκινάει. Όπως τόνισε ο υφυπουργός Πολιτικής Προστασίας και Διαχείρισης Κρίσεων, Νίκος Χαρδαλιάς, οι λειτουργίες θα γίνουν κεκλεισμένων των θυρών και όλες οι εκκλησίες θα είναι κλειστές για τους πιστούς καθ’ όλη τη διάρκεια της Μεγάλης Εβδομάδας. Κατέστησε σαφές ακόμα πως δεν επιτρέπονται μετακινήσεις σε σπίτια συγγενών και φίλων για την Ανάσταση ή την Κυριακή του Πάσχα, υπογραμμίζοντας ότι φέτος θα κάνουμε Πάσχα στο σπίτι με τους ανθρώπους που μένουμε μαζί, με μόνο μέλημά μας να σπάσουμε την αλυσίδα μετάδοσης της νόσου.
Greece enters Holy Week, the most sacred time of year for Orthodox Christians and traditionally a period of public gatherings and religious services, authorities watching carefully to ensure that the restrictions designed to curb the spread of the coronavirus pandemic are being upheld. Officials have warned that any sign of flouting the rules, also by members of the flock who may be tempted to gather outside churches or protest the ban, will bring stricter measures. The government and the Church of Greece have clarified that places of worship, regardless of their size and capacity, will only be open for clerics during Holy Week.
The Holy Synod has cautioned clerics against going rogue, but a lot will depend on the stance of the country’s 82 archbishops.
Ministerial Decision of Greece’s Ministries of Education and Health specifying the way churches are allowed to operate between April 12 and April 20, during the Orthodox Christian Holy Week and Easter Sunday. Churches to conduct liturgies, must abide by under Greece’s strict social-distancing rules and without any congregation whatsoever in attendance. Up to four people only will be allowed inside each church, including the priest, acolyte and chanter(s). The church itself will be obliged to enforce the appropriate social distancing rules and any other public-health related measures put in place by the State.
Churches will be allowed to broadcast their liturgies both on television and radio as well as individually via live streaming them on the internet, as is currently done elsewhere. These measures apply to all religions, and even include all the monasteries of the country, where congregants are not allowed even at normal times. Greece and the rest of the Orthodox Christian world will celebrate Easter this year on Sunday, April 19, one week after the Western Churches.
