Metropolitan Jonah Makes Makes Major Statement Regarding the OCA and the Future

"The Tomos does not allow for the full consequences of autocephaly to
be proclaimed, that all other churches on the territory of the OCA
are thereby uncanonical. Rather, it allows for the preservation of
their ties to their mother churches until such time as all can be
brought into a new unity, a single Church for America.

Thus, the OCA's charter and vocation is for it to disappear: it is
kenotic. Either it is to become the basis for the unity of the rest
of the Churches in America; or it must enter into a new organization
that will be fully autocephalous. We await this day, eagerly, so that
the mission of the Orthodox Church and the proclamation of the Gospel
are no longer compromised by the scandal of disunity."
