Serbian Patriarchate
[edit]Eugen’s response to the Karlovci synod was to organise a local assembly in Czernowitz, on 17 February 1861, bringing together the Clerical Consistory, the rector of the seminary, and the hegumens of all monasteries who were accompanied by a monk and two priests from their regions. <...>
The 1861 assembly had a long-lasting impact on the Bukovinian Church. First, by not including laymen in its organisation, it raised questions regarding the very nature of the Orthodox Church. Second, it declared support for an independent Church in Bukovina outside the jurisdiction of the Serbian Patriarchate. Third, it promoted the Bukovinian Church to the rank of metropolitanate, equal to the other recognised churches in the Empire.
