بطريركية أنطاكية وسائر المشرق للروم الأرثوذكس
The vicariate began when three schismatic Society of St. Basil parishes, under Bishop Alexander Tyler Turner, were canonically received into the Greek Orthodox Church of Antioch by Metropolitan Anthony Bashir in 1961, after an eight-year probation period. Turner had been in conversations with Bashir since 1952 about conversion of the parishes.
