OCA's website reports that His Eminence, Metropolitan Christopher (Kovacevich) of the Serbian Orthodox Church was recently diagnosed with bone and brain cancer and is presently undergoing treatment. Prayers for His Eminence, that the treatment be efficacious and that he be restored to full health and be granted many more years in God's service.

Metropolitan Christopher has fallen asleep in the Lord.

May his memory be eternal.

May the memory of the Lord's servant, the High Priest Christopher, be eternal. Prayers for the comfort of his children and grandchildren, and all the faithful of his See.
