ROCOR-STUDIES
Dear reader,

Indeed Christ is Risen! Воистину Воскресе Христос !

I am sharing with you here excerpts from the first paper translated for the November conference. These excerpts enable participants to ask a presenter their questions beforehand.

On May 29, I am planning to go to Belgrade to make arrangements on the grounds. From now on and until the conference I am also planning to update this website more often than twice a month.

Thank you for your continuing interest,
Deacon Andrei Psarev, Editor
