I don't know if he is who you meant. Metropolitan Herman of the OCA was also there, but sitting farther from the aisle, not as visible. Alice

I wondered what the Orthodox Hierarchs were thinking when a woman "Reverend" offered a prayer. Was this all in the mind of Martin Luther or Henry VIII? Silouan, monk

As my mom (who was a very conservative daily communicant) once said to me (when I was 'poo pooing' women clergy)---"Well Gregg, they could do any worse than the men I've seen!" Thanks be to God, the Lord listens to all of our prayers...and especially those that come from a broken and contrite heart! A blessed Sunday to you Father! In Christ, Your poor brother, +Fr. Gregory +Father Archimandrite Gregory, who asks for your holy prayers!
