Yes, this website is run by the laity of Met. Christopher's synod.

Right I thought so.

Though in terms of the main Mathewite synod, main Florinte synod (makarios), other Kallinikos synod and in the last few years Chrystophoros synod which do most endorse?

As all of them seem to have a very orthodox confession of faith though all just say each other is not as correct usually citing historical events.

I always thought if the church maintained the correct confession the grace should be there though each of these cite the others are graceless...

I understand that the writings/canons of the ecumenical synods endorse this though as a lay person which cannot be in all parts of the world where specific parishes exist it seems a choice needs to be made where there isn't a blatantly obvious selection.

Not to mention the fact that around the world there are several parishes under the main synods though usually in schism over trivial matters?

As always thank you for everyone's insight

No it does not because it lists no other bishops, but people keep referring to this as a synod. Are there any bishops with him?

All I could gather is that he's in communion with a Bulgarian Metropolitan who claims jurisdiction over Sardica. To me, the website itself looks like it hasn't been updated for awhile now.
