God help us to have clear heads and open eyes that can truly see and discern Truth. There are so many formerly TOC monastics, clergy and hierarchs who are now in communion with all these errors. We should remember that many of these deceived ones are our superiors in terms of learning and knowledge, and that if they could fall, so could we. In any case, it is all very sobering.

I just found A NEW image of Bp Jerome which. like the other, has to be seen to be believed !
Let me get the website link, as my attempt to post the image by itself went nowhere.

Ahem! Some of those former TOC monastics, clergy, and hierarchs are now living perverse lifestyles. Some have been charged with horrific abuse. The TOC would not have them but World Orthodoxy embraced them. Lord have mercy on them. However, this topic should not be discussed in Traditional Orthodoxy. I do not want to elaborate as it is so scandalous.

Lord Jesus Christ, have mercy on me a sinner.

I am trying to figure out who you mean, Maria. Does not immediately spring to mind -

Anyway here is the full pictorial spread of recent Western-Rite Conference under MetHilarion [Kapral].

The THIRD ROW of pictures down, with 3 across, has as its center
"Domnus Jerome" - what in the world is that ? Like Vladyka ?
Anyway, it's the picture which is SO revealing of Bp Jerome's character !
It catches him exactly.

I am not remarking about any of the participants in the Liturgy or meeting ; just pointing to this one photo of Bp Jerome walking by himself.
[Not the group photo at the top].

Is this good detective work ?!
Or has anyone else already seen these pics of the carefully concealed event ?!

YET another
Ahem ! :


May 2013 interviewer to Met Hilarion [Kapral] :

"For what other character traits do you owe gratitude to your parents?

Met Hilarion [Kapral] answer : Hospitality, honesty..."


Maybe hospitality but surely NOT the second quality !

I looked at that website and I was wondering if someone could answer a couple of questions.
It says the liturgy took place in a "borrowed Catholic Church."
How can a liturgy be performed on a consecrated Roman Catholic altar? Is this a common practice?
Also, this looks to be a new rite RC Church. Shouldn't parts of the Liturgy be performed with The Holy Doors closed?
