I really hope that despite all the global cataclysms, the community will remain in its current composition, with people of different nationalities—Russians, Ukrainians, Serbs, Greeks and Romanians.

But there is also another Switzerland—maybe not as popular, but still, the one that reveals itself to anyone who is willing to learn about it in a different light. It is more spiritual and blessed. It is the country of new Orthodox parishes. This is the Switzerland that gave the world many saints canonized by the Orthodox Church.

I began to serve in Spanish in order to make our church and services more open to people around us. For Chileans, including descendants of emigrants, church services have become clearer; in addition, we have begun pastoral work with people of all ages, holding meetings, reading the Bible, and answering questions.

The parish pays a lot of attention to its work with children and teenagers, because the issues of upbringing, education, and spiritual development of children have always been among the most difficult.

Part 2: On theological education in the UOC-MP, and the “Renaming Law” as a ploy to do away with the Church

Metropolitan Kliment (Vecherya)

For several years now the new statutes of our parishes, dioceses, monasteries and educational institutions haven’t been registered. New parishes, monasteries and convents are being set up in the country, but no one is registering them—they are outside the legal framework.

Fr. Edward’s Path from Episcopalian to Orthodoxy

Fr. Edward Henderson

And I’ll be frank—though I didn’t feel that I was on heaven and not on the earth (like Prince Vladimir), I did have another feeling—the Liturgy seemed timeless. It was ancient, present and future at the same time. It seemed as if it were beyond time.

A talk with Archpriest Vitaly Babushin, rector of the Church of St. Sergius of Radonezh in Stockholm

Archpriest Vitaly Babushin

As many Swedes say, they have no choice because Orthodoxy is the only truth. True, everyone has their own path. But if a Swede becomes really interested in his faith and tradition, having failed to find Christ in his Lutheran tradition, then he begins to dig deep in history.

That is why at this time the most important thing for the Orthodox minority on Malta is to preserve their faith and identity, remaining different in a way that is pleasing to God, despite the Maltese laws and influence of the Catholic majority.

The Ministry of Fr. Nikolay in Ireland: Pastor, Family Man, Programmer

Sergei Mudrov, Fr. Nikolay Evseev

The purpose of our life is to know God. Athonite monks come to know God through silence and hesychia, through the Jesus Prayer. The world has its own ways—through communication with one other, including in our families, and through struggling with our “selves” and egotism. But if you’re only seeking your personal happiness, even if in God, then you are wrong.
