Farley and Schmemann are not good teachers of Orthodoxy.

When we had no priest, divine liturgy was cancelled. My church calendar marks feasts and fasts. A Catholic, who also believes the bread and wine become the Body and Blood of Christ, cannot partake. And now, a new schism which separates us from our Greek Orthodox brothers. A pointless and I think erroneous article.
