Moscow, June 6, Interfax - Head of the Moscow Patriarchate Department for External Church Relations Metropolitan Kirill addressed the head of the Romanian Patriarchate Sector for External Church Relations Bishop Cyprian to clear up the information about Romanian hierarch communing at the Catholic mess. In his letter, Metropolitan Kirill asks bishop Cyprian "to clear out if indeed a prominent Romanian Orthodox hierarch communed with those who don't belong to the Orthodox Church," the Moscow Patriarchate official website has reported on Friday. The letter also asks "Patriarch Daniel of Romania and the Holy Synod of the Romanian Orthodox Church express their attitude to this event." As Interfax-Religion has reported earlier, Metropolitan Nicolae of Banat communed at a liturgy in the Greek-Catholic Church in Timisoara in presence of the apostolic nuncio to Romania Archbishop Francisco Javier Lozano.
