Hello all, poking my head around once again. I know I do this every so often. I had a question that I'm curious about. I am currently in the USA, but, hypothetically lets say I was in a country where I was Antiochian, and of course God willing not, but lets say Antioch is completely severed from the rest of Orthodoxy.
What happens to the people? Would the faithful be expected to start doing typica's on their own and reach out to another Jurisdiction or continue their respective jurisdiction through typica's?
Realistically I would imagine if a whole jurisdiction were to go down that there would be priests and such that stepped away and continued on perhaps?
(EDITED DUE TO CORRECTION ON STATUS OF ROCOR DURING PARTIAL SCHISM)
I ask because a lot of souls can be put in danger and I am curious to the answers.
Thanks for anyone trying to discern through what I am asking.
