The Holy Father #PopeFrancis has erected a new eparchy for Byzantine-Ukrainians in Gdansk. This is a region where Ukrainians were displaced in large numbers from their ancestral lands after the Second World War. https://t.co/1vDBGkd1vO

A localist, communion-ecclesiological understanding of jurisdiction would focus more on the people seeking to have a presbyter/bishop of their own rite petitioning for acceptance from the Christian majority of a different rite who live in an area? (Not that the majority would have a right to reject their request, but a request out of charity and politeness protocol/etiquette.) And the local presbyteral synod would welcome the new presbyter/bishop to their synod. Something like that...
