The new restrictions will be applied from f 6pm this evening and will be in effect until 11.59pm on Friday 9 July. In the meantime, attendance will not be permitted but all services, including the commemoration of the saint’s feast days, and the Divine Liturgies will be performed normally but only by the priest and the chanter.
