What is the next suprise awaiting us?

Fr. Romanos Radwan was a young Arab seminarian from the Holy Land at Jordanville in the late 1970s and early 1980s. He was very quiet and studious. After graduation he returned to the Holy Land, married and was ordained priest by the Jerusamen Patriarchate for Nazareth. After the fall of Patriarch Irenaeos Fr. Romanos protested and joined Met. Agafangel of Odessa. He remained in communion with Ireneaos and with Agafangel.

He has now been consecrated bishop for Haifa, Israel, under the Agathangelites who requested the “blessing” of ex-Patriarch Irenaeos who is under house-arrest in the patriarchate. There is no reference to his presbytera. The Agafangelites are in full communion with the Kypriano-kiousites.
