Jerusalem Breaks Communion with Bucharest

At its session yesterday the Holy Synod of the Church of Jerusalem decided to break all communion with the Romanian Orthodox Church because of its schismatic activities in the Palestinian city of Jericho. While Patriarch Daniel (Ciobotea) of Bucharest is no longer listed in the diptychs of the Church of Jerusalem, pilgrims coming to the Holy Land from Romania will still be welcome in the parishes, monasteries, and holy places under the care of the Patriarchate of Jerusalem.
