NEW YORK — St. Nicholas Greek Orthodox Church and National Shrine hosted its annual Juneteenth Ecumenical Prayer Service, bringing together clergy and faithful from a range of traditions – including those that inaccurately present themselves as Orthodox.

The keynote speaker was “Archbishop Titus of the Antiochian Orthodox Christian Archdiocese.” There is no such person — he is the Archbishop of the Malankara Archdiocese of the Syriac Orthodox Church in North America. We are not in communion with him, yet he was presented as Antiochian.
@Predamame One of the PRTC guys was talking about this before and I decided to get an Apple Watch since it was only $10 a month for one with cellular data. So now I wear two watches – Coros Pace 3 and Apple Watch SE 3

Today we were blessed by the visit of clergy and faithful of the Orthodox Church in America, led by His Eminence Archbishop Michael of New York and New Jersey, who, with the blessing of our Metropolitan Teodosije, celebrated the Divine Liturgy in the church of Visoki Dečani together with his clergy and the monastery brotherhood.
Following in the spiritual footsteps of Saint Nikolaj Velimirović, who once taught at St Tikhon’s Seminary, the present rector of this renowned Orthodox institution, Archbishop Michael, came to Kosovo and Metohija together with its dean, Fr John Parker, Fr Josiah Trenham, and their friends and co-workers.
During their pilgrimage, in addition to Visoki Dečani, they also visited the Patriarchate of Peć and the renowned Gračanica Monastery, bearing witness to the living bonds of faith, prayer and love between Orthodox Christians in America and the Serbian Orthodox Church.
