This month's selected book for adults is the classic title, Against False Union by Alexander A. Kalomiros & Photios Kontoglou, translated by George Gabriel.
Thoughts of an Orthodox Christian, concerning the attempts for union of the One, Holy, and Apostolic Church, with the so-called churches of the West. From the time of its first appearance in 1964 (1967 in English), Alexander Kalomiros' Against False Union, has been widely acclaimed. Orthodox and non-orthodox alike have made reference to it, quoting especially from its chapters on ecclesiology, salvation and the participation of the Orthodox Catholic Church in the "World Council of Churches".
