Observations and thoughts of an old priest The path of the Russian Orthodox Church Abroad. Observations and thoughts of an old priest Archpriest Roman Lukianov In connection with the recent turmoil within the Russian Orthodox Church Abroad, I think it would be beneficial to share certain observations and reflections. Recently there has been much talk about the path followed by the ROCA. Now it has become obvious that the «straight» path which some people refer to, has led in the end to a schism within the ROCA. This schism has been ripening over many years. In order to understand what is going on, one should look first of all at the Guideposts that actually have determined the course of the ROCA throughout its history. «New Martyrs Unify Us» «New Martyrs Unify Us» Archpriest Georgy Mitrofanov «New Martyrs Unify Us» «New Martyrs Unify Us» Interview with Archpriest Georgy Mitrofanov, participant of the All-Diaspora Pastoral Conference in Nyack (December 8-12, 2003) We managed to show the clergy abroad things they were unaware of: the enormous work conducted in our Church in the recent years.
