His Eminence after discovering and returning to the Holy Faith (Orthodoxy) attended Saint John’s
Seminary and was ordained to the Diaconate by The American Metropolitan of the Hungarian
Orthodox Church on October 28 1998 and to the Holy Priesthood on October 09 1999.
Mar +Azarias was consecrated on October 26, 2002 by The Patriarch of The Byzantine Catholic
Church, with co-consecrators from the Hungarian Orthodox Church, at The Holy Trinity Byzantine
Catholic Church in Los Angeles California as Missionary Bishop for North America, Canada,
Australia, New Zealand and England.
The Parish in San Marino is incorporated as an independent Parish under the name of The Holy
Byzantine Katholic Orthodox Church. A place of refuge for traditionally minded Christians that
wants to hold to the Apostolic origins, practices and biblical doctrines of the Christian faith in the
midst of modern reforms and political correctness.
Please note that the term "Mar" used by our Primate is a title of respect in Syriac, literally meaning 'my lord'. It is given by custom
to all bishops and saints. His Beatitude uses this term because of his Syriac Apostolic succession.
