His Eminence Metropolitan Silouan, Patriarchal Vicar, notified the Chairman of the Assembly, His Eminence Archbishop Demetrios of America, of the decision, which was received with great joy.
All members of the Antiochian Orthodox Christian Archdiocese of North America, including hierarchs, priests, deacons, monastics, and lay men and women, will resume the responsibilities and functions with which they were previously entrusted by the Assembly.
