In recent days the Little Pebble has been in correspondence with the Bishop of the Mariavite Orthodox Church. While they are not in union with the Roman Catholic Church, Bishop Pfiffer has expressed his interest in the Order of Saint Charbel. So much so, as to endorse his desire that the Order of Saint Charbel be acknowledged by a formal certificate. This certificate is provided here. It is truly remarkable that this Orthodox Bishop through his own discernment -- has recognised the authenticity of God's Work in the Order of Saint Charbel. It is also significant to highlight one of the major aims of the Order of Saint Charbel (see the Rule) -- is to be instrumental in the unification of East and West. This is part of the charism given by God to the Little Pebble.
