"We have concluded that when the principle of racial division (i.e. phyletism) is juxtaposed with the teaching of the Gospel and the constant practice of the Church, it is not only foreign to it, but also completely opposed, to it. We decree the following in the Holy Spirit: 1. We reject and condemn racial division, that is, racial differences, national quarrels and disagreements in the Church of Christ, as being contrary to the teaching of the Gospel and the holy canons of our blessed fathers, on which the holy Church is established and which adorn human society and lead it to Divine piety. 2. In accordance with the holy canons, we proclaim that those who accept such division according to races and who dare to base on it hitherto unheard-of racial assemblies are foreign to the One, Holy, Catholic and Apostolic Church and are real schismatics."

    a legend has reposed

    it has just been announced that Rev. Daniel Donovan has fallen asleep, I knew Fr, Daniel and held him in great regard. His Obit mentions that he was a collector of Orthodox written materials. As one of a small group of Othodox information archivists, I was in awe of his library of dedication books, yearbooks and journals/newspapers and in our circles he was known as "Files #2". Fr, Dan was an encyclopedia of information and his archival activities were of great importance. He will cetainly be missed - may his memory be eternal -- vechnaya pamyat.
