 From June 18–20, 2009 the seminary will host a summer conference titled, “The Council and the Tomos: Twentieth-century Landmarks towards a Twenty-first-century Church.” Conference speakers
will focus on two watersheds that have shaped the Orthodox Church in
America (OCA): the All-Russian Council (Sobor) of 1917–18 and the Tomos
of Autocephaly granted in 1970 by the Russian Orthodox Church to its
daughter church, the Orthodox Church in America, then known as the
“North American Diocese.” The conference will address the significance
of the OCA’s presence in North America, and future paths and
possibilities open to it, including its interface with the
multi-jurisdictional Orthodox Christian communities in the U.S. and
Canada.
