Your Holiness; Most-Reverend Bishops:
We humbly wish to inform you that with the blessing of the ruling bishop of the Shemokmedi diocese, Kyr Joseph, a meeting of the clergy of the Guria region was held on May 6/19 of this year.
At this meeting we considered the situation that has arisen in the bosom of the Mother Church, in particular, the declarations of the brotherhoods of the St.Shio of Mghvime, Betania, and St. David of Garedzhe monasteries.
We most humbly beg you not to rend the robe of the Church of Christ by schism. For love's sake, resolve to leave the World Council of Churches.
Otherwise, we shall subscribe to the decision of the aforementioned brotherhoods and shall sever eucharistic communion with you.
