The first hierarch Met Anastasy partic...

Re: The question of Grace: Matthewites vs Kallinikites
Would you be willing to clarify this thought a little more? I seem to remember you writing something similar when the GOC/SiR union first took place, but I don't remember it very well. But I am interested in what you mean. For me it is difficult to separate the "grace question" from any d...

Re: On John (Maximovitch) of San Francisco and the ROCOR
Because Lydia, Fr Panteleimon wanted to join the Matthewites first. He wanted to go with Archbishop Andreas. Greetings. How is it we know this? Source/documentation?
