  • Joint Deliberation Between the Russian Orthodox Church Abroad and the Church of the Genuine Orthodox Christians of Greece
    Joint Deliberation Between the Russian Orthodox Church Abroad and the Church of the Genuine Orthodox Christians of Greece Communiqué from the Joint Deliberation of the Holy Synod of the Russian Orthodox Church Abroad with the Delegation from the Holy Synod of the Church of the Genuine Orthodox Christians of Greece On Tuesday, April 15/28, 2015, at the headquarters of the Synod of the Russian Orthodox Church Abroad (ROCA) in Odessa, Ukraine, a joint fraternal deliberation was held between the Holy Synod of the Russian Orthodox Church Abroad, under His Eminence, Metropolitan Agafan- gel, who was present with six other Hierarchs (Andronik, Georgiy, Afanassy, Kirill, Nikon, and Roman), and an official Synodal delegation from the Church of the Genuine Orthodox Christians of Greece (He Ekklesia G.O.Ch. Hellados, or the Church of the G.O.C. of Greece), consisting of three Hierarchs (Photios of Marathon,Ambrose of Methone, and Klemes of Gardikion) and a Pres- byter (Father Michael Konstantinides), who served as their translator. The aim of this joint deliberation was to secure the unity of the two Churches by means of di- alogue on certain issues of mutual interest, seen by both sides as needing clarification. In a spirit of peace, mutual respect, and love, the delegations dealt with eight principal issues, achieving unanimity thereupon. To wit: 1. It was decided that the ROCA would refrain from accepting a certain group of clergy, owing to impediments of a canonical nature, which were pointed out by the Greek side. As well, it was agreed that henceforth there should be joint consultations in handling similar instances of petitions from clergymen located abroad; that is, outside the canonical territories of the two Churches.

  • Alexii and Zina Bushunow Joined in the Mystery of Matrimony
    Alexii and Zina Bushunow Joined in the Mystery of Matrimony On September 24, 2012 (Old Style), the Feast of St. Thekla, Equal-to-the-Apostles, Alexii Bushunow, the son of Deacon Father Dr. Peter and Diakonissa Milica (Melissa) Bushnow, from our Exarchate parish of the Holy Ascension in Rochester, NY, and Zina Tazine, the daughter of Sergei and Irina Tazin of Moscow, Russia, and New York City, were joined in the Mystery of Holy Matrimony. The service was celebrated by Archbishop Andronik of our Sister Church, the Russian Orthodox Church Abroad, at the St. Sergius parish in Valley Cottage, NY, and was fol- lowed by a gala dinner and celebration at the NewYork Country Club in New Hempstead, NY. His Eminence, Archbishop Chrysostomos and His Grace, Bishop Auxentios were scheduled to concelebrate the wedding with His Eminence, Archbishop Andronik, but Archbishop Chry- sostomos was unable to attend for health reasons and Bishop Auxentios was prevented from attending by time restraints related to his departure for Greece and the annual meeting of the Holy Synod. Both Hierarchs, however, sent their warmest greetings, as well as flowers, to the new couple and their families, wishing them “Many Years” of happy marriage. Pictured below (left to right), are the bride, her parents, Mr. and Mrs. Tazin, Archpriest Gregory Kotlaroff (the brother in the flesh of of Archbishop Andronik and pastor of the St. Ser- gius Church), His Eminence,Archbishop Andronik, Deacon Father Peter Bushunow, the groom, and Diakonissa Melissa Bushunow..

  • BCSI Program Guide 1.0 | 1
    Preface to the Scope and Sequence: The following pages outline the Barney Charter School Initiative’s Scope and Sequence for each of the major subjects from Kindergarten through 12th grade. Portions of this work are based on the Core Knowledge® Sequence, an original work of the Core Knowledge® Foundation made available through licensing under a Creative Commons Attribution- NonCommercial-ShareAlike 4.0 International License. This does not in any way imply that the Core Knowledge Foundation endorses this work. The BCSI Scope and Sequence differs most significantly from the Core Knowledge Sequence in Literacy, Grammar, and Math, though changes are not limited to these subjects. In Literacy the BCSI Scope and Sequence is based on the Riggs Institute’s Writing and Spelling Road to Reading and Thinking as supplemented and modified by Access Literacy, LLC. In Grammar and Math, the BCSI Scope and sequence is based, respectively, on the Well-Ordered Language series and curriculum from Singapore Math. The Barney Charter School Initiative has provided a scope and sequence for Latin from grades 6-9 and for all required subjects in grades 9-12. The BCSI Scope and Sequence includes resource recommendations for teachers to pair with the listed subject matter. In Mathematics, Literature, Literacy, and Grammar, these resources are directly paired to the scope and sequence items, and fidelity to the curriculum requires that these resources be followed quite closely. In Science, History, Visual Arts, and Music, however, these resources should be viewed as aids to teaching the curriculum, but not as the curriculum itself. Teachers need not employ all of a given science textbook, for example, and fidelity to the curriculum requires that teachers of these subjects use discretion to teach each topic from the BCSI Scope and Sequence using the best available resources appropriate to students’ grade level.

  • The Cyprianite-Agathangelite Union
    THE CYPRIANITE-AGATHANGELITE UNION In November, 2007 Bishop Agathangelus of Odessa entered into communion with the "Cyprianite" Synod of Greek Old Calendarists headed by Metropolitan Cyprian of Fili. (The Cyprianites claim that there has never been a break in communion between them and Bishop Agathangelus, but this is not strictly true, since the Lavrite Synod, of which Bishop Agathangelus was then a member, broke communion with the Cyprianites in 2006.) Then, early in December, Bishop Agathangelus consecrated two further bishops for his jurisdiction with the help of the Cyprianite Bishops Ambrose of Methone and George of Alania (South Ossetia) in Odessa: Andronik (Kotliarov) for New York, and Sophrony (Musienko) for St. Petersburg. So the "Agathangelite" Synod, thanks to the Cyprianites, now has three dioceses: one each for the Ukraine, Russia and North America. Some are hailing this expansion of the Agathangelite Synod as "the resurrection of ROCOR". Does this title correspond to the truth about the Agathangelite Synod? It would correspond to the truth only if: (1) the confession of faith of this Synod were purely Orthodox, (2) its apostolic succession were undoubted, and (3) it were the only Synod that could reasonably argue that it was "the continuer of ROCOR". I believe that the Agathangelite Synod fails to pass this test on all three counts. Let us look at each in turn:- 1. The Confession of the Agathangelite Synod is not purely Orthodox. Recently I put the following question to Bishop Ambrose of Methone: "Can we take it that Bishop Agathangelus shares your ecclesiology in all respects? In particular, does he, like your Synod, regard the Moscow Patriarchate as having grace?" His reply (the bishop was speaking only in his own name, not for the whole Cyprianite Synod) was: "So far as I know, and so far as I have discussed [it] with him, yes." In other words, Bishop Agathangelus recognizes the Moscow Patriarchate and the whole of World Orthodoxy to be grace-filled.

  • 1 Rassophore Monk Angelos Holy Trinity Orthodox Seminary Perpetual Embers
    1 Rassophore Monk Angelos Holy Trinity Orthodox Seminary Perpetual Embers: A Chronicle of ROCOR’s Missionary Efforts in India Introduction The Russian Orthodox Church Outside Russia,1 although founded as the church of the post-revolutionary Russian diaspora, also served as the custodian and guardian of the scattered pre-revolutionary Russian Orthodox missions in various parts of the world. From these, some quarters of ROCOR inherited and maintained a missionary spirit that has resulted in Orthodoxy flourishing in places where there had previously been no preaching of Christ’s saving message. Some of these missions have continued to blaze like a fire amidst the growing darkness of our secular age while others have remained ‘perpetual embers,’ steadily glowing through the toils of dedicated missionaries yet never reaching their full potential; God’s will for their full fruition seemingly delayed until He deems it meet. One such mission field is India: the great subcontinent, birthplace of two of the world’s most significant religions, Hinduism and Buddhism, home to one of its largest Muslim populations, and native land to one of the most ancient eastern Christian communities – the Saint Thomas Christians of Kerala.2 ROCOR has been present in India, to some extent, throughout most of ROCOR’s history, particularly in the years immediately before and after the Second World War. A number of ROCOR luminaries – including some who later became bishops and first hierarchs– were involved in the small Indian mission at one time or another, but few, with certain very notable exceptions, made India their home for any considerable period of time.

    Archimandrite Akakios, Abbot of the St. Gregory Palamas Monastery in Etna, California, Visits New York Communities With the blessing of His Grace, Bishop Auxentios of Etna and Portland, on the Feast of the Ascension of the Lord, 8 May 2015 (Old Style), Archimandrite Akakios attended the Feast Day services of the Holy Ascension Church in Rochester, NY, which is administered by Bishop Auxentios (see photograph below), where he served the Vigil for the Feast with Father Nicholas Chernjavsky, Rector of the parish, and Deacon Father Peter Bush- unow. On the Feast itself, he concelebrated with Father Nicholas, Deacon Father Peter, Father Sergius Boulter, from Cleveland, OH, who was recently received into our Synod, and Father Thomas Maretta, from our Synod’s parish of St. Maximos the Confessor in Owego, NY. Father Akakios was treated to the inimitable graciousness of the parish, not only at the Agape meal in the parish hall after Liturgy, but later by the clergy and their fami- lies and by the parishioners. He was lodged in the elegant home of Sergij and Valeria Chernjavsky, the parents of Father Nicholas, always constant in their extraordinary hospitality. Deacon Father Peter drove Father Akakios, on the day following the Feast, Friday, to the beautiful Mon- astery of the Holy New Martyrs of Russia in Mountain View, NY, the residence of Archbishop Andronik of Syracuse and St. Nicholas, a Hierarch of our Sister Church, the Russian Orthodox Church Abroad, and a close friend of our monastery in Etna, where they enjoyed lunch and warm fellowship.

  • Anthroponyrny in the Pomianyk of Horodysce of 1484
    Anthroponyrny in The Pomianyk of Horodysce of 1484 Part II IRAIDA IRENE TARNAWECKY Typology of the Anthroponyms in The Pomianyk of Horodysce The anthroponymy of the Pomianyk comprises two categories of names which from the genealogical point of view could be classified as (1) Semitic names and (2) Indo-European names. The Semitic group includes Hebrew, Aramaic and Coptic names; the Indo-European group consists of Greek, Latin, Germanic, Slavic and a few other names. The typology of names is organized below in the following order: Semitic, Greek, Roman, Germanic, Slavic and other names. Each name is listed in the reconstructed nominative form and accom- panied by its representative form as it occurs in the Pomianyk. Then, all other forms of that name, as found in the text, are given and the page number on which they appear for the first time is indicated. Since it is not the prime task of this work to offer a close study of names on the basis of their etymological history, the explanation of names offered here follows. general lines rather than philological lines. For this reason sources consulted fo~ etymological purposes are listed only in Section C of the bibliography. Semitic Names. Early Semitic names were very simple in their structure and meaning, for example, Leah 'weary,' Adah 'ornament.' However, later Semitic names consisted, for the most part, of two elements so combined that the names had an intelligible meaning, usually either religious or related to the birth of the child to ,vhom they were given. Mattathiah 'gift of Jehova,' or Isaac 'laughter' (because Sarah had laughed for joy at the annunciation of the angel) are examples of these qualities.

The return of the Russian Church Outside Russia (ROCOR) to Russia in 1990 after almost seventy years’ exile was undoubtedly one of the most significant events in Church history, comparable to the return of the Jews to Jerusalem after the seventy-year exile in Babylon. And yet this momentous step was taken almost casually, without sufficient forethought or a clearly defined strategy. Hence difficult problems arose, problems that had their roots deep in ROCOR’s past history.
