The synod of Rafail of Moscow., formerly with the Synod of Met. John of New York until they chose to discontinue it.
This synod doesn't appear to be listed on the complete listing of the True Orthodox, could you link me their website?

Persecution of True Orthodoxy continues in Russia today. The Synod of Met. Rafael has been disbanded by the Russian Government as an illegal entity. Things are, therefore, in turmoil. Likewise, other True Orthodox are being forced underground as catacomb churches. No doubt their websites will also be shut down.
Lord Jesus Christ, have mercy on me a sinner.

If you are asking about the GOC-A, their current website is under construction (for too long) at www.avlonasynod.com. To my knowledge the only working page is entitled Ecclesiology.
There is a very outdated site at http://metropolsynodgoc.blogspot.com/ but it does have some English pages and some information. The English is not a great translation but you will understand most of it.
The North American Mission website is www.namissiongox.org, but it's not much more than our little mission, a mission in formation and hopefully in a week or so, the announcement of our second actual mission in the United States.
Where will the other mission be located?
