Is ROCOR Leaving the Episcopal Assembly?

I think the operative paragraph in this Statement is:

This, we firmly believe, is also the means of forging a stronger unity amongst the Orthodox churches of North and Central America — not by the collapsing of the identities and structures of the nine jurisdictions currently represented in this territory, however well-intentioned a “restructuring” may be, or however attentive intentions may be towards questions of ethnicity — but through an increased bond of mutual love that permits us to live together in our diversity, yet in the more perfect unity of the Spirit.

In other words, if the E.A. is going to survive and “the more perfect unity of the Spirit” will prevail, it will be a local church that is a reflection of the diversity of Orthodox expression here and not one superimposed by a Greek overlord.

We Orthodox here in the USA and Central America are the collateral damage of the most recent pissing match between Constantinople and Moscow. Sadly, the so-called OCA has lost all of its legitimacy to even be considered part of the solution.
