list of eparchies and hierarchs
In October 2010 the Holy Synod reorganized the territories of the original three eparchies to establish the new Eparchies of [[Eparchy of Karaganda|Karaganda]], [[Eparchy of Kostanai|Kostanai]], and [[Eparchy of Pavlodar|Pavlodar]]. The following month Metropolitan Alexander of Astana stated that the Kazakh language would be gradually introduced into the divine services of the Orthodox Church in Kazakhstan.
