<!--- === The "Jurisdiction" Problem in Hawaii ===
Up until the 1960s, the Russian Orthodox Church of Russia held traditional canonical jurisdiction over the Hawaiian Islandsof Hawaii. After Following the 1960s, parishes from three seperate Orthodox jurisdictions established themselves in the Islands; Greek, Serbian, and OCA. At one point there were as many as five different Orthodox jurisdictions in the Hawaiian Islands. This is one anomaly that will hopefully be rectified soon. All Orthodox churches in Hawaii are in communion with one another. For more information on the sin history of JurisdictionalismJurisdictions in America, [http://www.orthodoxinfo.com/general/gen_america.aspx click here], and [http://members5.boardhost.com/STANDREWHOUSE/msg/1153963172.top here]. --->
