Education genuine love of country, interest in the history of his country excites and unites pastors and people in the arts. High culture helps to find a path to the heart and mind of man.
The voice of the Russian Orthodox Church in the most difficult and crucial periods of our history were often decisive in determining the choice of the path. Remember the lives of the saints: Alexander Nevsky, St. Sergius of Radonezh, the warrior monks of Andrew Alexander Peresvet and Oslabya, Admiral Fyodor Ushakov.
Holy Trinity-St. Sergius Lavra, called “the spiritual capital of Russia”, represents the soul of the Russian Orthodox people. As future pastors, students of Theological Academy and Seminary, absorbed all the best that has been accumulated over many centuries in the spiritual and cultural Treasury of our country, are called upon to bear this knowledge in your offices.
We thank his Eminence Ambrose , Archbishop of verey, vicar of the Patriarch of Moscow and all Russia, rector of the Moscow theological Academy for having given us the honour and confidence, as well as head of the Regent school of MDA, Abbot of Lazarus (Nativa) and the head of the Museum of MDA, Anton Sergeyevich Novikov for their help in the organization of the project “Not in the name of glory.”
