Remembering Bishop Basil (Rodzianko)

On the Twentieth Anniversary of His Repose
For those of us who were blessed to have known this extraordinary man, it is hard to believe that twenty years have passed since September 17, 1999. On that day, Bishop Basil was to have received American citizenship, but the Providence of God transferred him to Heavenly citizenship instead. He was 84 years old.

The more patiently Batiushka returned him to the need for repentance, the more distraughtly he would dodge the answer. Finally, covered with sweat and crimson from shame, he said: “I,” and fell silent, gathering his courage.

Pat. Bartholomew discusses ecumenical relations in Vatican with Ukrainian Uniate leader
http://orthochristian.com/123981.html
One wonders why Patriarch Bartholomew is discussing the prospects for ecumenical dialogue of the allegedly autocephalous OCU with the Uniates; if the OCU is truly autocephalous, another Church would not discuss their possibilities of dialogue on their behalf, as that Church would have zero influence on the government and policies of an autocephalous Church, even if it is the mother Church.

These two saints lived long lives in faithfulness to God, but had little to show for it–at least until the end of their lives when God blessed them with one child. That child is the forerunner of the salvation of the world.

Schismatic OCU claims Patriarchate of Alexandria now de-facto recognizes them
http://orthochristian.com/124016.html
When Metropolitan Chrysostom of Mozambique was serving with Greek bishops in the Langadas Diocese of Metropolitan Ioannis (Tassias), the schismatic Vladimir Shlapak suddenly appeared, presumably with the invitation of Met. Ioannis, and served with the hierarchs, seemingly without informing the hierarch of Alexandria who he was, or what was happening, before it already happened.

I met with a friend not long ago. She relocated from Tbilisi to Moscow many years ago, but she comes home every summer. She has been a churchgoer for a long time, but her parents joined the faith when they were already on the threshold of eternity. I wanted to record what I heard. Here is my friend’s story:

Everyone waiting for confession was standing and watching the poor woman, and probably pitying her in their souls. And the matushka again turned to the woman, now white from horror, and added: “You see… Never laugh at anyone in church.”
