A Conversation With Bishop Hilarion Alfeyev
By Fr. Johannes Jacobse | July 3, 2008
St. Vladimir’s Seminary recently held a symposium on the state of ecumenical relations between the different Christian communions throughout the world. In attendance was Bp. Hilarion (Alfeyev) of Vienna, a man highly respected at AOI because of his bold and clear testimony to Christ in Europe (see some of his writings on OrthodoxyToday.org). Fr. Chad Hatfield, Chancellor of St. Vladimir’s Seminary, sat down with Bp. Hilarion for a frank discussion on ecumenical relations between Orthodoxy and other Christian communions, as well as tensions between Moscow and Constantinople about the direction some of these discussions are taking.

Fr. Patrick Henry Reardon, sharpened his focus on bringing the Gospel of Jesus Christ to America during the conference as well. Listen to him explain how the Orthodox lack in their knowledge of scripture and why a recovery of scripture is sorely needed.

I was fortunate enough to be at this event. It was the first major American conference of a group called the Fellowship of Ss. Alban and Sergius, a mostly Oxford, England-based “officially unofficial” Anglican-Orthodox meeting ground.
My rather rambling thoughts and reflections on the event, as well as some photos, may be found here:
