Revision as of 00:46, September 25, 2008 by Criostoir1971 (talk | contribs)
The Church of the Genuine Orthodox Christians of Greece is an Old Calendarist body (one of the Florinite jurisdictions) which in 1935 broke from the Church of Greece over the latter's use of the "new calendar," also known as the Revised Julian Calendar, a hybrid calendar using the Gregorian method of dating for the immovable feasts combined with the Orthodox Paschalion. It is not in communion with the mainstream Orthodox Church. Its current primate is Archbishop Chrysostomos II.
