Parish life in the diaspora: unity in prayertranslated

Russian-speaking Orthodox communities abroad continue to live a full liturgical life: services are celebrated, Sunday schools open, and catechetical talks prepare those who wish to receive Holy Baptism.

In many cities, groups of faithful petition for the opening of new parishes. Where there is prayer and people ready to labor, a community arises — and around it, everything needed for full parish life gradually takes shape.

The Orthodox House portal will tell the stories of these communities and help them find support.
