ROCOR-STUDIES
Dear reader,

Greetings on the feast of Ascension of the Lord!

Summer is the only time when I do not teach at Holy Trinity Orthodox Seminary and, therefore, I can research and write. On June 10 I am leaving for the University of Illinois Urbana-Champagne to work with the archives of Paul B. Anderson who spent his 48-year career working with the YMCA’s International Committee. He lived in Russia during the overthrow of the Tsar and subsequent attempts to establish a democratic government. Paul Anderson also exchanged correspondence with the ROCOR’s leading figures of the 1920s.

Then I would like to prepare a class on Russian Church history which will be offered through the St. Athanasius Academy of Orthodox Theology.

Later this June I begin teaching a class on ROCOR History and Identity offered through the Pastoral School of Chicago and Mid-America Diocese of the Russian Church Abroad.

Also, I need to prepare materials from last year’s Belgrade Conference on the history of the ROCOR for publication in a thematic volume in English.

Additionally, I need to prepare a questionnaire, which the Fund for Assistance to the Russian Church Abroad will send to the ROCOR’s parishes.

I also would like to prepare a chapter on the Inter-Council Assembly of the Russian Church for a handbook on Conciliarity/Sobornost, edited by Dr. Irina Paert who is a Senior Researcher at the School of Theology and Religious Studies, University of Tartu, Estonia.

I may also write a paper for a canon law congress in Belgrade this September.

Then, of course, I shall be setting up my classes for the next teaching year. I am collecting the extra funds to cover my time and to take care of my family’s needs.

    Thank you for your continuing interest,

    Protodeacon Andrei
