Indonesian Orthodox Church (Indonesian: Gereja Ortodoks Indonesia, abbreviated GOI) is the legal name of the deanery of the Russian Orthodox Church Outside Russia in Indonesia.[1][2]
History
Ever since it was incorporated by the ROCOR into the Archdiocese of Sydney, Australia and New Zealand under Archbishop Hilarion Kapral[2] through the help of Archbishop Mark (Golovkov) in 2003, it has been headed by the Mitred Archimandrite Father Daniel.[1]
On 2 November 2019, the clergy of the Indonesia Orthodox Church, formerly part of the ROCOR Diocese of Australia and New Zealand, decided to come under the unified spiritual leadership of the Diocese of Singapore due to the lack of ROCOR diocesan structures in Indonesia and on the basis of pastoral considerations.[3]
Structure
It has approximately 2,500 members[1] and includes 13 parishes that spread in Java, Bali, Sumatra, Celebes, Timor and Papua.
