With the resignation of Metropolitan Jonah as Primate of the Orthodox Church in America, the Chancery of the Orthodox Church in America continues to receive requests from the faithful and from the media for additional information.

"The facts of the Metropolitan's decision are contained in his statement, which has been posted on the OCA web site," said Archpriest Eric G. Tosi, Secretary. "At this time of transition, all of the Chancery's efforts are directed at moving forward in faith and good order, ensuring that the Church's mission of proclaiming the Good News of Jesus Christ is strengthened."

As events may require, further information will be posted on the OCA web site, which according to Father Eric "should be seen as the official source of information about the Church.

"We ask everyone's prayers for the hierarchs, clergy and faithful of the OCA," he added.
