Let's be honest about ROCOR

Post by haralampopoulosjc »

Saint John of San Francisco concelebrated with and communed New Calendarists from the Greek Archdiocese. He did this all the way up until his death.

I won't mention Fr. Seraphim Rose because this site seems to be 50/50 on whether or not he was a saint.

Metropolitan Saint Anthony Khrapovitsky with his cell attendant and EP Bishop in an Anglican procession, Britain, 1925. In celebration of the anniversary of the First Ecumenical Council

My point being that the ROCOR wasn't as walled off from World Orthodoxy as some people claim.

We did know about Met Anthony and the Anglicans, to some degree. But that picture is really SOMEthing !

The photo of St Philaret Ascension [! - that's what his last name means in Russian for any new visitors] is stunning !
Isn't this the 1st time that this pic and interesting story has ever seen the light of day ?

What a find, thank you, H. !

What HAS happened to the Rocor-MP Church in Marseille ? I don't recall offhand

I wonder WHERE that Icon is right now ??

That is the most remarkable find ! Thank you again, Haralampop.
