Βetween 7-10 September 2016, a “miracle” happened in the Monastery of Bose (Italy): among about 200 participants of the XXIV International Ecumenical Congress of Orthodox Spirituality
were bishops, clergy, monastics and lay people coming from all the 14
Orthodox Local Autocephalous Churches, as well as representatives from
the Oriental Orthodox Churches, the Roman Catholic Church, the Anglican
Communion and the Reformation.

Perhaps the most
significant thing about the Great and Holy Council of the Orthodox
Church that met in June in Crete is that it took place at all.
