Rev. Cheryl Fricker is the rector of St. Aidan’s Oakville; she has also been parachuted into St. Hilda’s as the “priest in charge”<\/a> <\/a> at the diocesan Potemkin St. Hilda’s.<\/p>\n

At the building sharing hearing, the court gave the diocese access to St. Hilda’s building from 7:00 am – 10:00 am Sunday morning and for a 4 hour afternoon \u00a0and 3 hour evening period. The diocese, having no shame whatsoever, has appealed to people attending local parishes to come to their 8:30 a.m. Sunday service. They haven’t had much success<\/a>. Orthodox Christians who remain in the diocesan parishes have expressed disgust at the diocesan attempts to create a bogus parish.<\/p>\n

The diocese is so confident\u00a0 – or perhaps sloppy – that they are not even bothering to conceal the fact they are moving meetings from another parish to St. Hilda’s simply for the reason of occupying it. For example St. Aiden’s brazenly advertises<\/a> that it has moved its bible study location:<\/p>\n
