The procession concluded with praises to St John sung before his uncorrupt relics, at the end of which Metropolitan Hilarion read the prayer to him composed by Archbishop Anthony (Medvedev), who succeeded him on the cathedra of Western America, and who initiated the uncovering of the saint’s relics, which were discovered to be uncorrupt. “I grew up near St. John.” “I grew up near St. John.”
Maria Potapova on St. John of Shanghai “I grew up near St. John.” “I grew up near St. John.”
We do feel his presence in this church. Many people come to ask for help—it is he who brings them here. And the archbishop helps them himself. It is he who should be thanked for this help. The Dread Judgment The Dread Judgment

A search for compromise will be the characteristic disposition of men. Straightforwardness of confession will vanish. Men will cleverly justify their fall, and an endearing evil will support such a general disposition. Men will grow accustomed to apostasy from the truth and to the sweetness of compromise and sin.
