The Serbian Orthodox Church’s Information Service issues a cautionary statement to the faithful regarding the exploitation of the revered name of Patriarch Pavle of Serbia by fraudulent individuals seeking material gain.
The Information Service stresses that the Serbian Orthodox Church bears no association with the website Patriarch Pavle – Online Store (patrijarhpavle.rs) or its linked Instagram account. It is important for believers to be aware that the sale of books and other items through these platforms not only lacks endorsement from the Orthodox Church but also poses a significant spiritual risk.
Regrettably, according to the Serbian Churche’s Information Service, some individuals are resorting to exploiting the esteemed memory of Patriarch Pavle and the sanctity of his position for their own illicit financial motives.
The statement reads: “Such actions not only deceive the faithful but also bring dishonor to the legacy of Patriarch Pavle and the sacred institution he represented.”
