Bishop Basil and Bishop Antoun Report On Damascus Trip

In essence we learn from the interview: The trip was nice, the meeting was warm and cordial, the discussion was frank, and no particulars of the meeting or of the Patriarch's opinion will be made public until after the synodal meeting later this month.

(Ancient Faith Radio) - Recently, a group of five Antiochian Bishops traveled to Damascus to meet with His Beatitude Ignatius IV, Patriarch of Antioch and all the East, about a February 24th decision of the Holy Synod of Antioch affecting the status of the bishops in North America.

Following that meeting, Matthew Namee, host of the new podcast American Orthodox History, spent some time talking with His Grace Bishop Basil of the Diocese of Wichita and Mid-America. You can read a report from His Grace Bishop Antoun of the Diocese of Miami and the Southeast on the Antiochian web site HERE.

Interview available here.
