I've just been emailed this!

The famous Russian Olga Mitrenina of ROAC has updated her site ROAC IN PICTURES It used to be the Unofficial ROAC web-site with stories of how people lost their lives not converting to the MP and staying with ROAC. She just added pictures from her trip to America where she's visited churches of the Genuine Orthodox Church of Greece in America. (I think ones we're in communion with) The pictures're at http://www.roac-suzdal.narod.ru/st_john/ and http://www.roac-suzdal.narod.ru/st_athanasios/index.htm They're just lovely pictures!

I think she's still traveling in America so please pray for her $/\$

The house chapel of Fr. Christos is wonderful. It would be nice to be able to wake up to that every day.

Took awhile to load even with a cable modem but they are some very nice pictures! I couldn't image having a home chapel like that!

I just figuered out the problem, the MP is trying to suppress this site...no wonder it is loading so slowly. Sergianism is spreading faster than ecumenism!!!

Julianna,

Olga Mitrenina is a very nice and pious young lady.

The churches and monasteries depicted in those pictures are from our Synod. I think part of your confusion is this...

Your Bishop Gregory here in America, who used to be in our synod as an Archmandrite, seems to have a deep personal dislike for our Metropolitan PAVLOS. Thus he is very supportive of Kallinikos who is offically "walled off" from us, which means he recognizes our Synod.

Thus it might seem to you that you are in communion with the Kallinikos synod, and may be wondering why Olga herself does not regonize them and has chosen to visit only our parishes and has interviewed our Archbishop.

The truth is, Bishop Gregory seems to be isolated because the rest of his synod favors ours. And the Kallinikos Synod is virtually in offical communion with ROCiE.

I know this is all very confusing so I thought I would help clear the air.
