Nicholas- ROAC?

Post by bogoliubtsy »

I went to visit JoeZollars' old blog today and was redirected to:

http://homepage.mac.com/nstanosheck/ibl ... index.html

After following a couple of the links it became apparent that our moderator, Nicholas(formerly enlightener of Japan, but after his second chrismation the Tsar Martyr Nicholas) has been received into ROAC. It seemed inevitable to me yet it's still saddening.

but if I read correctly earlier, then Zollars is no longer with the ROAC? If that is the case, I hope you can find a religion/jurisdiction that is for you.

Huh? Joe is no longer ROAC? :?

I might also say that, while I sort of guessed that Nicholas might become ROAC, I never fully believed it until he said so. Even the week he was moving to CO I don't know that I totally thought he would be ROAC. I guess I'm just naive.

Since I don't believe Joe is posting here right now, and since I have been speaking to Joe almost every day since November, I will say that Joe came to the conclusion that ROAC was not for him and is now investigating other Orthodox bodies. If you want any more information, I suggest you email him or private message him.

In Christ,
