Re: Concelebration of GOC-K with True Romanians, All Saints
The meeting took place because of the worry of romanian hierarchs regarding the union document. Probably that's why it has already been translated in romanian.
Hopefully this meeting, along with explanations given by Bp Photios of Marathon, make it clear regarding this union of TOCs.
Glory to God!
"When on a clear fall night I gaze upon the clear heavens, illumined by innumerable stars that send out a single light, then I say to myself: thus are the writings of the holy fathers. When on a summer's day I gaze upon the wide sea, covered with a multitude of distinct waves, driven by a single wind to a single end, a single pier, then I say to myself: such are the writings of the fathers. When I hear a well-ordered choir, in which different voices sing a single hymn in shimmering harmony, then I say to myself: such are the writings of the fathers." (St. Ignatius Brianchaninov)

That's a beautiful quotation from St Ignaty, Andrei C. Very soothing to read during a ruffled time...
So the Romanian TOC under Met Vlasie has misgivings about this union ? That's interesting !
