New York, March 12, 2012
On
Sunday, March 11, 2012, after divine services at St
Nicholas Patriarchal Cathedral in New York, there was a
presentation of the book Protopriest Seraphim
Slobodskoy. His Life and Legacy (1912-1971) in the
Cathedral refectory. The books’ co-author and son
of Fr Seraphim, Alexei Slobodskoy, spoke. The book
relates the story of the life and work of the renowned
pastor of the Russian diaspora, known throughout the
Russian Orthodox Church as the author of the popular
tome The Law of God. Last November marked the
fortieth anniversary of his death.
Alexei Seraphimovich’s lecture was supplemented with
a slide presentation of photographs and creations of Fr
Seraphim, who was a magnificent artist and icon-painter.
The parishioners of St Nicholas warmly greeted the
speaker, and His Eminence Archbishop Justinian gave Alexei
Seraphimovich an icon of the Heavenly Protector of the
Cathedral and a book on his life.
The following Sunday, March 18, Mr Slobodskoy will make a
similar presentation at St Seraphim Church in Sea Cliff,
NY.
Protopriest Seraphim Slobodskoy. His Life and Legacy
(1912-1971) can be purchased from the Synod
bookstore.
