« The celebration of the 10th anniversary of the rapprochement between the Moscow Patriarchate and the ROCOR »

On Sunday, 19 November 2017 both Dioceses of the Russian Orthodox Church in the UK will be marking the 10th anniversary of the rapprochement between the Moscow Patriarchate and the Russian Orthodox Church outside of Russia which took place in 2007. 

Archbishop Elisey of Sourozh and Bishop Irenei of Sacramento with their clergy will celebrate Divine Liturgy at the Cathedral of the Dormition of the Mother of God and the Royal Martyrs in Chiswick, 57, Harvard Road, W4 4ED.

It is hoped that as many of the faithful as possible can gather for this historic occasion. At this Liturgy, prayers will be said for those who perished and suffered as a result of the Russian Revolution on its 100th anniversary.

Greeting of Archbishop Elisey of Sourozh at 9:45 a.m.
