Philippine denominations join the Antiochian Orthodox Archdiocese of Aust. & NZ
We would like to inform you that after long discussions with two denominations from the Philippines, one belong to the Catholic Patriarchate of the East and the other Evangelical, we reached an agreement in principles,
to accept them in our Antiochian Archdiocese. The Archdiocese will take care of the education, training and ordination of all the thirty plus religious leaders and their followers. It is a historic moments in the history of the Patriarchate of Antioch and the Archdiocese of Australia and New Zealand
(article continues, including donation information)

Where's sohma hatori when you need him? ;)
Fr. George:
Interesting... Where is the date on that announcement? I'd love to know when it was posted.
It sounds like a wonderful development. I hope the Spirit continues to guide the leaders of the Archdiocese, and uses them to teach and edify the new Orthodox Christians!
FrChris:
The announcement was posted on the 'Latest News' section of the Antiochian Archdiocesan website for Austyralia and New Zealand (which also includes the Philipines, I guess!) 3/20/2008.

His jurisdiction is the whole Pacific Ocean. It includes Hawaii but not Alaska.
FrChris:
Does His Eminence's jurisdiction also include parts of Mainland Asia, such as China, Vietnam, and parts west?
Just curious! I was only thinking that, if His Eminence starts to acquire multiple parishes in the Philipines, perhaps his 'title' should also be amended.
