Prayers for Cyprus
"Once again a drought has blighted our country and the people are worried because if the dry spell continues it will bring terrible consequences to farming, livestock and crops," (Archbishop Chrysostomos II) said.
"We are certain that by praying together with the warmest of spirit and deepest of faith it is possible that Almighty God will hear our prayers and grant our request," said a statement from the archbishop on Monday.
Lower-than-average rainfall over the last year has drained the reservoirs on which Cyprus relies heavily for water.
Cyprus' largest dam is expected to run dry if there is no heavy rainfall within the next month, Reuters news agency reports.
