While the stance
of the Archbishop Ieronymos, the primate of the Greek Orthodox
Church, towards the schismatic “Orthodox Church of Ukraine” remained unclear after the Bishops’ Council of the Greek Church on October 12, it has now been clarified.
As Romfea and its English edition Orthodox Times
both report, Abp. Ieronymos sent an “irenic letter” to
“Metropolitan” Epiphany Dumenko, the primate of the schismatic OCU
on October 21.
According to established tradition, every new primate of a Local
Church sends “irenic letters” to the primates of the other Local
Churches of the Orthodox Church, officially announcing his elevation.
Response letters from the other primates constitute an official
recognition of the new primate.
Read the rest here.
This, at last, appears definitive.
