The Salt Lake Tribune
St. Anthony Monastery
Sixteen high school seniors from Utah returned Sunday from a weekend-long graduation celebration. There was no partying or dancing. There was wine, just not for their imbibing.
Still, the teens did experience extreme behavior — religious, that is.
The pilgrims from Salt Lake City’s Greek Orthodox parish traveled to St. Anthony’s Greek Orthodox Monastery in Florence, Ariz., an hour from Phoenix, to immerse themselves in monastic life.
Sequestered from the stresses of modern living, the 10 boys and six girls rose each day at 2 a.m. for a three-hour worship service, worked in the kitchen and vineyards in 90-degree weather and met for small group discussions and quiet meditation. They wandered around the monastery’s 300-plus acres, dazzled by the stark beauty of the chapels, gardens, gazebos and Spanish fountains nestled among the palm trees and sagebrush.

5,000 Mayan's come to Christ through Orthodoxy
The conversation published below took place in early December 2009, during the visit of Metropolitan Jonah (OCA) to Russia to celebrate the 15th anniversary of the Moscow representation of the Orthodox Church in America, and is devoted to the activities of the Church in Latin America.
Your Beatitude, in which Latin American countries is the Orthodox Church in America represented?
The jurisdiction of our Church extends to Mexico. Previously, we also had some parishes in Argentina, Brazil, Peru and Venezuela. But some of them left for the Russian Church Abroad, the others were closed.
Several communities in Latin America want to join the Orthodox Church in America. We would be happy to take these believers, but there is no one to care for them, because we have very few priests who speak Spanish or Portuguese.
A priest I hope he will soon become a bishop began a mission in Ecuador in Guayaquil, where there settled a major Palestinian colony. Unfortunately, in recent years, his good initiative was dampened. I heard that in Central American countries, particularly in El Salvador, there are many Palestinians. Curiously, they do not go to the parishes of the Antiochian Church, and have been asking to be accepted under our omophorion.

April 21, 2010 – A delegation from Orthodox Christian Laity met last week with His Eminence, Archbishop Demetrios at the headquarters of the Greek Orthodox Archdiocese in New York City, William Souvall, OCL President, announced today.

We particularly wanted to express to the Archbishop the appreciation of OCL’s membership for his leadership in convening this unprecedented meeting and for the important responsibility he will assume as the chairman of the Assembly,” Mr. Souvall stated.
