Archbishop Hilarion (Kapral) of Sydney, Australia and New Zealand is the ruling bishop of the Diocese of Australia and New Zealand in the Russian Orthodox Church Outside Russia.

Early Life

In 1929, Alexei and Evfrosinia Kapral moved from the Western Ukraine to Alberta, Canada. They would eventually have seven children, with the last, Igor, being born in 1948. When he was 21, Igor would enrol in Holy Trinity Seminary, Jordanville; three years later, he would graduate from the Seminary and enter the attached monastery as a novice.

Life in the Church

In 1974, Igor is tonsured to the rassophor with the name Hilarion, named for St Hilarion, the Metropolitan of Kiev. The next year, he is ordained to the diaconate by Archbishop Averky (Taushev), and begins his obedience as Abp. Averky's cell attendant.

Dcn Hilarion receives a double honour in 1976, as it was the year when he was ordained to the priesthood by Bishop Laurus, and also when he graduated from Syracuse University with a Masters degree in Slavic Studies and Russian Literature.

In 1984, at the young age of 36, Fr Hilarion is consecrated a bishop by Metropolitan Philaret of New York and nine other bishops, and was appointed to the see of Manhattan, and charged with overseeing the parishes in Pennsylvania and serving as deputy secretary for the Synod of Bishops.

In 1995, Bishop Hilarion was transferred to the see of Washington, retaining, however, his residence in New York. This didn't last long, however, as he was simultaneously transferred to the Diocese of Australia and New Zealand and raised to the rank of Archbishop. Further honour came in 2003 when he was awarded the honour of wearing a diamond cross on his klobuk.
