Fr Georges was a priest of the Patriarchate of Constantinople. Protopresbyter is the highest rank among the Greeks and the Russians. Archbishop Chrysostomos of Etna, who studied under Fr Georges, wrote an article entitled "Protopresbyter Georges Florovsky" (http://www.orthodoxinfo.com/ecumenism/florovsky.aspx). In Constantine Cavarnos' book ''Father Georges Florovsky on Ecumenism'', there is a section entitled "A Note on Protopresbyter Georges Vasilievich Florovsky." --[[User:Fr Lev|Fr Lev]] 00:11, April 7, 2009 (UTC)

The article claims he was active in the Ecumenist movement. I would like to know if he died with the same point of view since I hear that towards the end of his life ... he completely changed his thinking and I would think that it is important to reflect that in the article.

: There's a big difference between the sort of ecumenical activity Florovsky was involved in and [[ecumenism]] as a heretical position on ecclesiology. Florovsky was interested in engaging other Christians, not in selling out our basic affirmation that only the Orthodox Church is truly the Church. &mdash;[[User:ASDamick|<font size="3.5" color="green" face="Adobe Garamond Pro, Garamond, Georgia, Times New Roman">Fr.
