| | Dialogue with the Oriental Orthodox |

| | The ongoing dialogue between the Oriental and Eastern Orthodox Churches was welcomed with "the spirit of fraternity, mutual understanding and common aspiration" by the 143-member Holy Synod of the Russian Orthodox Church during its recent meeting in Moscow. | | | "We, the Orthodox delegates, believe that life is an act of God's creation, and a sign of it, thereby being a sign to the world of God's love," the common letter to the hierarchs states. | | | "The Statement should not be regarded as a final document sufficient for the restoration of full communion between the Orthodox Church and the Oriental Orthodox Churches as it contains ambiguities in some Christological formulations," the hierarchs concurred. |
