Fifteenth Anniversary of the Rebirth of Monastic Life in Sretensky Monastery. Metropolitan Hilarion, First-Hierarch of the Russian Orthodox Church Abroad congratulates Archimandrite Tikhon and brothers of Sretensky Monastery

To the Very Reverend

ARCHIMANDRITE TIKHON,

Superior of the Moscow Sretensky Stavropegic Monastery

Your Reverence, Beloved in the Lord Fr. Tikhon!

I send my heartfelt greetings to you and all your brotherhood in Christ on this day, the fifteenth anniversary of the restoration of monastic life within the walls of Monastery of the Meeting of the Vladimir Icon (Sretensky). I likewise greet the professors, teachers, and students of the Sretensky Seminary with its ten year anniversary! I prayerfully wish God’s abundant mercy and blessings upon your service to the Lord and His image, which is reflected in our neighbor.

I am very grateful to you, dear Fr. Tikhon, for your labors both in Russia and beyond its borders. The Russian Church Abroad sees in you a man who loves our Church, its history and heritage, and understands its spirit; we see in you a man who ever fights for Russian Orthodox ideals. For this you have earned deep respect and trust amongst the hierarchs, clergy, and laity of our Church.

With great appreciation for your contribution in restoring canonical communion within the Russian Orthodox Church, I pray that God’s blessing may be with you and all of your co-laborers.

With love in the Lord,

Metropolitan Hilarion of Eastern America and New York,

First Hierarch of the Russian Orthodox Church Abroad

The experience of inner discipline Interview with Monk Nicholas Muromtsev My mama couldn’t accept it at first. But when she saw where I live and work, and had the chance to talk to people here, she told me, “You know, son, you can stay here as long as you need to.” When I asked how she came to that decision, she answered, “All the young men here actually radiate love, and between you are the kind of relationships which I have always wanted to create in our family. We’ve achieved it in our family to a certain extent, but the ideal I’ve seen only here with you all.”
