🇷🇺🇪🇬 Exarch of Africa: The transition of 102 priests to ROC is just the start
— "The head of the Patriarchal Exarchate of the Russian Orthodox Church in Africa, Metropolitan Leonid, said that the transfer of 102 priests of the Alexandrian Church under the omophorion of the Moscow Patriarch is only the beginning, RIA Novosti reports.
According to Vladyka Leonid, he is planning an archpastoral visit to Africa, but now visiting a number of countries is impossible due to epidemiological restrictions. “Nevertheless, as the structure of the Exarchate is unfolding, human resources will be required, so the personnel issue is one of the top priorities today,” he stressed.
The exarchate in Africa is “an absolutely new powerful structure of a continental magnitude, which calls for scrupulous, detailed study and elaboration,” Vladyka said."

Dan Andrews told the world that Novak Djokovic would not play in the Australian open unless he's injected with the experimental covid jab.
Novak held the line and refused.
Today he was given permission by Australian officials to play without the jab.
Be like Novak.

Update #1: Just spoke with Fr. Tryphon. They want to keep him in the hospital overnight for observation. He covets your continued prayers and hopefully if all goes well, they will release him tomorrow.
