<p><b><i><font face="Arial"><font size=-1><font color="#000000">The need
for an Orthodox Christian witness that was led by Western born Hierarchy
while not weighed down by ethnocentricism was seen as very much needed.
</font><font color="#FF0000">St. John Maximovitch, Archbishop of San Francisco
& Shanghai</font><font color="#000000">, is for us our heavenly patron
of the Western Rite due to his own promotion of a genuine Western Orthodoxy.
It was the Old Calendar Orthodox Church of Greece under Archbishop Auxentios'
presidency that established a Metropolia for the West with the concecration
of Metropolitan Gabriel of Portugal. This would become our present Church.</font></font></font></i></b>
<p><b><i><font face="Arial"><font color="#000000"><font size=-1>Under the
capable archpastoral leadership of His Beatitude, Metropolitan +Evloghios
of Milan & Aquileia, our current Primate, the Holy Synod of Milan was
given its Tomos of Autonomy from the Old Calendar Church of Greece by the
hand of Archbishop Auxentios in September 1984. While in communion with
the Ukrainian Orthodox Church in Exile under the Blessed +Mystyslav; he
became the First Pariarch of Kiev. Subsequently, our Holy Synod was received
under the spiritual protection of the Kievian Patriarchate. The Blessed
+Volodymir, the 2nd Patriarch of Kiev, also recognized us with a second
Tomos of Autonomy in March 1994. </font></font></font></i></b>
