Glory to Jesus Christ: A History of the American Carpatho-Russian Orthodox Diocese, Lawrence Barriger

Glory to Jesus Christ, which is written with acumen and sensitivity...elucidates the long journey of generations of the Carpatho-Russian people, from the ministry of Sts. Cyril and Methodius, through the tragic aftermath of the deliberations of Brest and Uzhorod, and a return to Orthodoxy, amidst the current challenges of American life. This volume attests to the fact that the Diocese and her people are essentially Orthodox. The Carpatho-Russian Orthodox Church does not occupy some mediating position between Roman Catholicism and Russian Orthodoxy. Rather, she is completely Orthodox, firmly under the omophorion of the Ecumenical Patriarchate. And as each of the Diocesan faithful reflect more the light of Orthodox Tradition, they will end up showing more fidelity to the essential religious legacy of Karpatska Rus'. - From the Preface by His Eminence Metropolitan Nicholas of Amissos
