Christians from Floresti don't accept new priest
Scandal at the church from Cunicea village, Floresti district. The Christians don't want to accept the new priest, who was named by the Metropolis of Chisinau. The people say that Alexandr priest is the student of Valeriu priest from the left side of Nistru who was blamed of fraud.
The Christians blocked the entrance in the church since January 31, the day when Alexandr Reabov was named in the office of priest. To clam the spirits, the main priest of Floresti district came and told the Christians that the priest won't come over. Moreover, he was angry and became aggressive.
The residents of the village are angry that the priest from Floresti didn't explain them why the priest left their church. People were satisfied about his work, as he repaired the church and has a strong belief. Now, the new Christians are afraid that the church will be transformed in a business.
"Our church was sold."
"He doesn't have the required studies. He studied just three years."
Priest Valeriu Galaida became known in the summer of 2015, when he filmed how he exorcised. The picture shows how a young man carries the priest back while weeping and screaming. Subsequently, the man was trampled to rid himself of the demons.
Priest Alexandr mentioned, however, that he does not know Valeriu priest.
"I met him in the Metropolitan's office." "You are photographed next to Valeriu priest." "I was then at the Metropolitan," said Alexandru Reabov, priest.
Moldovan Metropolitan Vadim Cheibaş said that most likely in Cunicea would be another priest who would be accepted by the Christians.
"Their reaction was not even objective. The newly-named priest can not be blamed or something like Valeriu who had a previously televised scandal," said Vadim Cheibas, the secretary general of the Moldovan Metropolitan Church
The former priest worked in Cunicea village for 13 years.
