The '''Autocephalous Greek Orthodox Church of America and Australia''' is a [[schism}schismatic ]] group, begun as a result of a 1960s break in relations between the [[Greek Orthodox Archdiocese of Australia and New Zealand]] and the ''Federation of Greek Orthodox Communities in Australia''. At present, each community is also affiliated with the ''Greek Orthodox Community of South Australia Inc''. This group is not recognised by any mainstream Orthodox Church.
