Report: Orthodox Church of Cyprus to recognize schismatic Ukrainian church

The source is an anti-Russian news site, but they made some specific claims and quotes. I believe the report is credible. It's also not very surprising. I have generally expected that Cyprus and possibly the Greek and Romanian Churches would fall in line with Constantinople. Presumably Moscow will sever communion with Cyprus once this becomes official.

Statement on Homosexuality by the Holy Synod of Cyprus and Confusion on Anglo-Catholic Ecumenism

Read it here. Meanwhile mixed signals seem to be the order of the day on the longstanding "dialogue" between Anglicans and the Roman Catholic Church. Even as Catholics here in the United States seem to be admitting that the divergence between the two churches has reached a point where further talks are unlikely to be productive, the leading Anglican hierarch in Rome made statements on the ongoing ARCIC talks that might charitably be described as excessively sanguine. My own view is that they appear to be aimed at making satire redundant.
