Eastern Orthodox bishop
About
Jump to
Abdullah Aftimios Ofiesh (22 October 1880, Bikfayya Al-Muhaydathah, Lebanon - 24 July 1966, Kingston, Pennsylvania) was an early 20th-century Orthodox bishop in America, serving as the immediate successor to St. Raphael of Brooklyn under the auspices of the Church of Russia. He held the title Bishop of Brooklyn from 1917 to April 1933, when he married, thus deposing himself from the episcopacy. He led the American Orthodox Catholic Church for six years and is perhaps best known as being the source of various lines of succession of episcopi vagantes.
