"and in Canada"?[edit]

Where in Canada is it? --Richardson mcphillips (talk) 01:36, 13 April 2014 (UTC)[reply]

article seriously deficient[edit]

The article is clearly not NPOV. Many important aspects of history are missing. The end result is that it looks like a matter of theological purity, whereas there have been multiple jurisdiction-jumpings, large-scale defections from the church, and the accustions against Hieromonk Pantaleimon of sexual abuse of monks and novices that simply cannot be wished away, whether they are true or not. --Richardson mcphillips (talk) 01:51, 13 April 2014 (UTC)[reply]

The fact that the vast majority of their parishes in the US and all their Canadian parishes fled in the past two years over HP and charges of heresy would also be noteworthy.72.79.135.104 (talk) 09:18, 19 June 2014 (UTC)[reply]

change of name[edit]

Is this group still called HOCNA? Or is its official name HOMB? --Richardson mcphillips (talk) 19:51, 13 April 2017 (UTC)[reply]

HOMB (Holy Orthodox Metropolis of Boston) is a diocese of HOCNA. HOMB together with HOMS (Holy Orthodox Metropolis of Seattle), and HOMT (Holy Orthodox Metropolis of Toronto) form the synod named HOCNA. --Anonymous Monk — Preceding unsigned comment added by 71.232.100.140 (talk) 17:31, 8 May 2021 (UTC)[reply]

located?[edit]

The lead says "located primarily in the United States and Canada, with additional communities in Latin America, Europe, Africa, and Georgia." HOCNA communities worldwide mentions "the Americas", Europe, and Georgia, but not Africa. --2607:FEA8:FF01:4B63:8C3B:98E5:8DD3:DD03 (talk) 01:05, 20 January 2022 (UTC)[reply]
