Italo-Greek Orthodox Church

The Italo-Greek Orthodox Church or Italo-Byzantine Orthodox Church claims to be an independent group of churches in North America following a Greek Orthodox style of worship but with no canonical or sacramental ties to the mainstream Eastern Orthodox Church. It is not to be confused with the Greek Orthodox Archdiocese of Italy, a diocese of the Orthodox Church of Constantinople. It claims a following of 3,000 people spread across two parishes. However, the Archdiocese's home page provides no evidence of any functioning communities other than the Cathedral Parish in Utica, New York which has not had any scheduled services since at least Easter Season 2009.
