I would like to inform you that the Synod of G.O.C of Greece under Archbishop Makarios is undergoing a crisis after their Archibishop announced to them that they have joined with the HOCNA and that he had unilatterally (alone/by himself) commited Eucharistic communion with the Bishops of HOCNA.
Also, according to the information, all the Bishops of Makarios' Synod disagree with this union and this is the reason that Archbishop Makarios hasn't convened a meeting or Synod yet to ratify the union.
Interesting, thank you for this information. Besides I did not hear any official assertion about the GOC Abp. Makarios Synod are agree with the very controversial/heretic HOCNA teachings.

Lord Jesus Christ, have mercy on me a sinner.

Is there any update on this crisis in the GOC Synod under Archbishop Makarios?

I just received this email from the Staff of Omoglogitis (the unofficial website of the GOC-AB Makarios).
We do not subscribe to the web site you reference [E Cafe].
His Beatitude Archbishop Makarios did indeed visit and concelebrate
with bishops of HOCNA.
The Sacred Synod is currently investigating the many controversial
issues regarding HOCNA including that of the charge of embracing the
heresy of Onomatolatreia which has been canonically condemned.
Thank you for your prayers.
With love in Christ and best wishes,

I also received this new email from the Staff of OMOLOGITIS, the unofficial laity run website of the GOC-AB Makarios Synod:
We do not subscribe to the web site you reference because we do not engage in polemics which tend to take on a life of their own.
Our web site immediately announced the departure of former Bishop Athanasios of Gardikion when it occurred and although it is extremely sad it has not caused a crisis in our Sacred Synod.
The photographs of His Grace Bishop Nektarios of Olympus were taken long ago when he was still a young student at the university - before his tonsure or ordination.
Thank you for your concern.
With love in Christ and best wishes,
The Staff of OMOLOGITIS
