This is something I have not heard of before. I am aware of RC's of the liberal stripe sliding leftward into Anglicanism (Catholicism less the guilt as my sister says). But this is the first time I have ever heard of an Orthodox Priest going that way. My guess is that this is a fairly rare occurrence.

Hello,
Apologies on the interjection:

To give a little background the "Continuing Anglican" movement is very conservative. Probably the best know member of the Clergy is one of the three Hart brothers who is a Priest (strongly recommend "Her Mother's Glory" on the Touchstone Magazine website)...all three started off as mainline Protestant, the other two are a Catholic Lay Theologian and an Orthodox Priest.

This is interesting definitely, but not unheard of, one of the men being ordained for Boston this year is former Greek Orthodox. The converts probably weren't practicing.
