Comment: Memory Eternal/Vechnaya Pamyat!  to righteous  sufferer departed Archpriest Paul Adelheim of Pskov!

He was a world-known, and much loved by Russians, heroic long suffering victim of the evils of the Moscow Patriarchate till his [ convenient for the MP] murder in his own home, by a deranged mental patient, [supposedly not paid or put up to it-?], two years ago.

We know, that in his end period, he was publically considering leaving the MP and joining our ROCA.

His murder stopped that, and closed his mouth.

He was vocal for many years, in making public the many wrongs and corruption of the MP.
And he was punished and persecuted [ and very much so, by his own MP Pskov diocesan bishop, Eusebius] for much of his dedicated priestly life,  by that MP.- the so-called, created by Joseph Stalin in 1943, KGB ruled, 'Mother Russian Church' (?) that ROCOR/MP Hilarion Kapral has kept joined his deluded and greatly mislead flock to, [since 2007), ...and also, which the foolish also mislead American OCA, submitted itself to, in order to gain its, 'autocephaly' /'independence' !!!, back in 1970,  also is slavishly joined to.

It is quite doubtful, therefore, that his death was 'natural'.

I regret that I must share this rough  machine-English translation with English readers, but I have no way to have it put into good humanly translated English. But for myself, I comprehend most of it, and as I already know much about his inspiring life and writings.

Those who are fluent in Russian, will have no problem in reading this article.

"The disease Adelgeymera" or the Memory of Paul:

Written on. Valery Leonichev incl.August 5, 2015. Posted in Apostasy (Views: 4)
http://gubernia.pskovregion.org/number_717/121.jpgWhat happened during the year with the memory of  Father Paul Adelgeim [1], to follow Christ to the death?

Much has been done for the outcome of the Church of the Soviet and post-Soviet slavery? To sacrifice for the sake of orphans and seriously ill people? What place in the social and ecclesial memory occupied by his suffering? His pain? Standing for the truth? The conflict with the local bishop Eusebius and other "princes of the church"? The persecution that befell him? The attempt on his life? That is what  should be at the core of "In Memory of Paul."
Christian memory, says German theologian Johannes Metz, should be formed in compassion for the victim. His "theology of memory" is based on the biblical concept of anamnesis as the memories of the Passion of Christ. Famous Orthodox theologian Metropolitan. John (Zizioulas) developed the idea of ​​the Eucharistic memory (Eucharist - Thanksgiving, The Last Supper, Communion) as the communion of the Church to the suffering of Christ.

At the Last Supper, Jesus of Nazareth breaks unleavened wafer, and gives it to them, saying: "This is my body which is given for you. Do this in memory of me (Do this in remembrance of me)." These are the key words for the memory of Christian theology. Then ate the Passover meal "that you may remember the day came up out of the land of Egypt all the days of thy life" (Deut. 16: 3), that is the memory of Easter was the memory of the liberation from the prison of tyranny and slavery. Christ gives new meaning to the Passover memory - the sacrificial death. In Christianity, thus becoming the center of the memory the memory of the sufferings of Christ and the solidarity of connection with him as a victim.

The church in this sense there is a community of memory, community remembers remembering Christ in the first place - the suffering incurred by him and his followers.

In the midst of the diocesan campaign launched against his father Paul Adelgeim, Pskov became a sad joke that the local bishop Eusebius hit "Adelgeymera disease." I mean personal animosity head of the Pskov diocese to his father Paul, his fierce desire to humiliate and discredit the famous priest and theologian, in that whatever was to discredit and nullify all his undertakings (the temple of the hospital, an orphanage, a regency school, books, etc. .).

After the murder of Father Paul metaphor "disease Adelgeymera" acquired, in my opinion, the new value is closer to Alzheimer's disease - as forgetfulness or memory distortion of the ascetic way of the cross.

Awakening and oblivion
August 5, 2013 the news of the murder of Father Paul Adelgeim [2] shocked and led thousands of people to Pskov to say goodbye to loved pastor, teacher, martyr of Soviet labor camps and internal church repression. At the cemetery, the camera work, the journalists interviewed, the tragedy was accompanied by the flow of reports and articles.

Archdeacon Andrei Kuraev Adelgeim called Paul "the last free  priest of the Moscow Patriarchate", August 6, at "Church Herald" appeared cautious, but rather an honest obituary strel'chik the fate of Eugene, asceticism, and even persecution on the previous attempt on the life of his father Paul in 2003 .

The chief editor of the portal "Orthodoxy and the World" Anna Danilova regretted that the portal is not written about in the life of Paul the Confessor. And sorry excuses: "It is difficult all the same - like the conflict in the diocese, there is something to the general church court realized that writing - is unclear. And take the interview - when something is to say that it is unclear how and print. Yes, we know that he is a confessor, was sitting in the camp, I lost a leg. But it was a long time, and now that there is in the diocese - who probably knows something? (...) Now here we write. Three days already write. As it is, we do not missed what it was wonderful, and how great a feat his confession. "

"Surely" that "there in the diocese," that is the campaign of harassment launched by the Metropolitan of Pskov and Velikie Eusebius, he knew his father Paul and wrote extensively about it, but his book "The doctrine of the Church in the canons and practice", correspondence a bishop, letters mother Vera and other evidence, apparently, did not cause "Pravmira 'confidence. Why then throw the word "a great feat of confession," when there is no faith confessor?

Managing editor, "Journal of the Moscow Patriarchate" and the newspaper "Church Herald" Sergei Chapnin the next day after the murder prayed God to give "strength and courage to save it (father of Paul) in his mind as he was - no defaults, varnishing with all its "inconvenient" words and deeds ".

Two months later, in the "Journal of the Moscow Patriarchate" (2013, № 10) appeared Chapnin obituary of his father Paul, not only with varnish and default on the conflict with the Metropolitan. Eusebius, but with the reproach to his father Paul for "unsubstantiated opinions" about the church: "Books and articles Father Paul often wore a sharp, polemical. Some of his judgments were harsh and unreasonable, caused fair criticism."

De mortius aut bene aut nihil? Where is the principle "of the dead, or good, or nothing"? I assume that the phrase about "fair criticism" was not in the original version of the obituary, but it added to all missed obituary printing.

Exactly one year later, the evening of August 5 2014, Archdeacon Andrei Kuraev for almost an hour in the studio broadcast "Echo of Moscow" does not even mention the anniversary of the tragedy. Complete amnesia.

None of the Pskov priests came to a memorial service, which was accomplished on that day at the tomb of his father Paul. One came on the eve of Adelgeymovskie reading [3], but my question is, if he was going to continue his father Paul, frightened replied that he had no such gifts, nor the time, but he wanted to be in a similar way to build your community.

Patriarch Kirill arrived in Pskov 3 September, a month after the days of the memory of his father Paul. The grave of the righteous Pskov was not included in the program of his visit.

In Pskov say that Metropolitan of Eastern America and New York Hilarion (Kaplan) [4] wanted to honor the memory of his father Paul, but diocesan escort accompanied him on a trip to the monasteries, and from there straight to the airport, bypassing Mironositskaya cemetery.

Anna Danilova for a year and did not understand that what happened in the Pskov diocese from 1993 to 2013, but continued to publish about his father Paul, carefully avoiding "inconvenient" words and deeds.

Memory substitute
In the "Official Statement of the Synodal Information Department of the Russian Orthodox Church in connection with the murder of Archpriest Paul Adelgeim" the name of the dead man in the text itself is not mentioned even once. His personality and his life intentionally eliminated from the statement of the church, replacing the obituary: says nothing about the father was shot, none of the orphanage childhood son enemies of the people, nor about the camp term for a temple built in Kagan, nor a series of attempts on his life, one of which in 1972 left him without a leg or on how it betrayed and persecuted priests and bishops as Eusebius of Pskov Metropolitan manically destroying everything carefully erected Father Paul.

Statement of the Synod sounded literally deadly as denied his father Paul's life. It spoke only of death. But his death they were impersonal. Take away and death, assigning it to myself, "This is not the first victim among the clergy, who in recent years have increasingly become the target of attacks. STATEMENTS evil force can be called people raises his hand against the shepherds who take and comfort the afflicted. The battle against Christ and the Church, unbridled adherence to dishonorable passions inevitably translate into hatred and anger against the servants of the throne of God. "

It if is not about her father Paul, and one of many of the typical tragedy that somehow is the result of "unbridled repetition dishonorable passions" (who followed the passions and how? What does licentiousness is the murder of Father Paul?).

The aim of the Synod was the depersonalization of the author's father Paul through silence and generalization. He switched the murder of Father Paul the general problem of violence against priests and, more generally, the problem of a certain malice of some uncertain people in relation to Christ and the church. In fact, the hierarchy has replaced Father Paul himself, appropriating his martyrdom.

The reader should have seen the murder of Father Paul rampant vices and dark forces to attack the holy Church and of God himself. The murderer is the father of Paul equated those faceless evil people who hate the Church, including those, I suppose, who criticizes the vices of the church and see the gulf that separates it from Christ. This was Father Paul Adelgeim. On itself rebelled? Or bishops, a substitute for Christ?

Confusing text, but it is clear that he has revealed the inability of the hierarchy to assess the uniqueness of the person of Paul Adelgeim and recognize fair verdict their father Paul, "has teamed up with the state of violence and greed, the lord forget Christ. Futile attempts to embody utopian symphony Christ slashed:" Render to Caesar Caesar and God what is God "(Matt. 22, 21). In justifying the crimes of princes, bishops sakralizuetsya imperial power and rely on its power. Symphony corrupts both the bureaucracy, paving the way to a golden cage, and the costs of increasing tension in the society. In 1917, it resulted pogroms in temples. Hierarchs choose the former path, stepping on the same rake. The people are silent. " [5]

It turns out that the sinners written statement on the murder of the judge. Church hierarchs sins (no personal sins, and the sins against the Church as a community of believers in Christ) are listed in the main work Adelgeim "The doctrine of the Church in the canons and practice," his memoirs "Eyewitness", sermons, interviews, reports and poetry.

Synodal statement sought to bury not only the individual, but also the ideas and writings of Father Paul, likening the discussion of his legacy gossip morally corrupted "Now many are trying to discuss social and civic position of the deceased. Unfortunately, these gossip overshadow the fact of the terrible death of the priest use it as an excuse to justify the personal views of the church life. This attitude speaks of the moral damage of the society in which the murder of priests, not only the Orthodox, have become a frequent occurrence. "

Any personal views on church life obviously being questioned: the collective personality subordinated Bishops. Depersonalization, considered the father of Paul, deeply alien and hostile to Christ: "Hell is impersonal and corrupted the image of God, unifying identity in the Procrustean bed of the standard. Hell - a discipline, erected in the absolute, where all is silent voice of conscience, turning into the unquenchable fire, a faint voice of reason addressing worm incessantly, suppressed feelings and desires, enslaved autocratic will only Lord, Satan. "

Memory defaults
The church members were in a difficult situation: many of them are aware of the value of the person and work of his father Paul, shared his views, loved him as a pastor, but well aware that public remember his conflict with the local bishop and his assessment of the current state of the church is unsafe for their own church well-being. Especially good is understood ministers. Father Paul emphasized that "neither the canons nor the Charter of the ROC does not protect the clergy and laity of the abuse of executive authority of the bishop: abuse of power, unfair and unreasonable penalties insults, humiliation of their honor and dignity."

But Father Paul silence was a sign of the acute problems of internal lack of freedom and lack of principle: "What is the alternative? Silence? Lie out of fear of the Bishops rebuke? Fear creates a sham. Not only to others. There is a complex psychological phenomenon: a man pretending to be in front of him. Captive man is forced to idealize their captivity. In an effort to preserve the self-respect in the depths of the soul crippled, he easily takes the arguments justifying its unprincipled obedience. "
The memory of his father Paul became selective, carefully avoiding the dangerous uncomfortable. On the evenings of memory in different cities mostly talked about his pastoral ministry: Congregational respect, building community, helping the needy, teaching children and students, nourishment hospitals and schools. We talked at times as if his service was held in the field of conflict-of ecclesiastical unanimity, only occasionally and gently mentioning "false brothers", "bishop's supervision" or "suffering incurred."

It also happened that a man preparing for Adelgeymovskim Reading, boldly took up the theme of internal church persecution, but did not dare to directly consider the example of her father Paul.
The report by Alexander Kopirovskogo "confession as a victory of Christ's love" (SFI), dedicated to internal church persecuted sounded different examples from church history, was presented typology accusations modern confessors, but the suffering of the Father Paul remained outside history and theory of matter.

Default requires justification. Priest Konstantin Kostromin in its report "The Confessor of the twentieth century in the XXI-th century" developed the idea of ​​the irrelevance of heroism in the postmodern era, that in modern society there is no more heroes, capable of leading the nation or the church. Father Paul, in his understanding, was a hero who had to live in the "age antigeroizma" in which he was "inoroden and superfluous." This explains the father of Constantine that, in principle, "good people", being taller than his father Paul in the administrative ladder, were not able to understand his heroism. It's not their fault. Just such an era.

I thought the theme of school works "Excuse Pechorin or era?" and wondered how the priest's religious consciousness, for which should be the primary spiritual origin, can easily be combined with the ideas of social or temporal determinism.

How can the epoch time environment determines the personality and behavior of a Christian if inside the kingdom of heaven, which is not of this world? "We, the people of the postmodern, Chekhov people" - repeating the speaker. Who are we? All of humanity, with the exception of Paul Adelgeim? Absurd, seemingly, but you can justify any crime in relation to his father Paul. Sorry to say, the hero of Paul, I've been on you wrote a denunciation, because it is in our postmodernism so accepted.

Dangerous Memory
Johannes Metz has formulated two types of memory: soothing nostalgia for the past, "in which everything was so good," and "dangerous memory" of conflict and suffering, which calls for a person to action.

For example, the July 22, 2014 Polish Catholic philosopher Jaroslav Makovsky published an article "Putin plays havoc" in which he accused Western leaders of cynicism, indifference to the suffering of the Ukrainian people and referred to by Johann Metz: "Indeed, says theologian Johannes Metz (Johann B. Metz), "the authority of suffering" - "weak" authority. But today it is the only authority who "stayed with us in our globalized world. He is the only so "strong" that it is impossible to get around with any religious or cultural point of view. "If so, then the suffering person must obey every mind, every ethics, each policy. After all, what is the use of reason, ethics or politics, if they remain deaf to the cry of pain and suffering of the victims? "

Soothing, lulling memory of Paul Adelgeim clearly has the upper hand. Like the memory of his father Alexander Me, memories of his father Paul basically saying how good it was to him, he received me, I helped all aware, has created good living, how much of it was Christian love, openness and charity . This kind of memory is developing the perfect archetype of fatherhood, not suffering hero or victim. Such memories are beautiful, necessary, usually full of gratitude, but it is not sufficient when it comes to the tragic fate, milled millstones terror prisons, denunciations, betrayals, assassinations and killings.
Organizing Adelgeymovskie reading, I tried to make a list of problematic issues that troubled his father Paul and which were linked to him many essential values ​​of the church and the internal structure:

• catholicity of the Church against the "mechanical unity";
• antinomy of unity and freedom;
• forgotten the reform of the Local Council of 1917-1918 .;
• problems in the functioning of the church hierarchy;
• separation of church and state: the law and reality;
• transformation of the Church of the Constitution and "the practice of monarchical episcopate";
• The role of the clergy and laity: the restrictions and prohibitions;
• laity and parishioners "zahozhane";
• independence and parish social ministry (of the community);
• The concept and practice of the ecclesiastical court;
• imaginary and the real state of the church;
• poclushanie, obedience and dignity;
• forms of justification inner unfreedom;
• History of internal church persecution XX-XXI centuries.

I realize that my list of several smoothed, it could sound more acute by the fact be closer to the painful problematic field Father Paul.

Members of the Moscow section of the readings held in the Sakharov Center, talked about the persecution of Father Paul, about the silence of the clergy, church administration and the crisis of the Church as a whole, compared with Alexander Paul Adelgeim Menem, recalled a letter full of pain Faith Adelgeim Metropolitan Eusebius, her "Cry from the heart" "Atheists persecuted. Now represses Metropolitan ROC. You have turned the Russian Orthodox Church from the Church of the martyrs in the persecutor. No wonder. The Lord Jesus is also persecuted and crucified bishops." Crucify, crucify! "- shouted bloodlust Son of God. Everything is repeated. Now, Bishop ruins the people of God. " Letter pierces the pain and sets the tone for the memory of the suffering of his father Paul, we need to maintain and develop, if we want to be in spiritual union with him.

This is definitely a traumatic memory, which people often instinctively try to avoid, as well as any pain. What it is largely due to the reluctance of the majority in Russia remember the Soviet repression of the crimes of the state against its own people and other countries. But without disturbing the memory of the victims of crimes and there can be no repentance, no redemption.

There are laws that protect one of the two types of memory. In several European countries have, for example, a law banning denial of the Holocaust, and in France - a separate law on the recognition of the Armenian Holocaust in 1915 Their goal - to protect the memory of the victims of genocide, memory, compassion and thereby prevent similar crimes in the future. Memory is addressed not only to the past but to the future. Talking about what happened, it predicts what will.

Russia has recently adopted a "law of Spring", visiting both for the "rehabilitation of Nazism" and the dissemination of information about Soviet crimes during the Second World War. In fact, this law is intended to protect the soothing memory idealizes the past, and delete or block "dangerous memory" of the suffering of the many victims of the regime.

Memory assignment
The last thirty years, sometimes called "memorial boom", referring to the rapid development of the science of memory (memory studies). This article - a timid attempt to describe a brief but dramatic and very important for the country, "the history of memory."

Because in today's Russia as an individual and collective memory tend to assert themselves in a much greater extent than the critical self-awareness, the memories of his father Paul often reminds the story of "I / We Adelgeim." Of course, every memory is a personal history of relationships or experiences, but important vector memory opens it "away" or "self."

If the official speakers and speechwriters ROC elected policy of neglect, the small community of Transfiguration fraternities (a kind of "church in the church"), by contrast, actively maintains and builds its collective memory of his father Paul. St. Filaret Orthodox Christian Institute gave Father Paul persecuted the chair, the audience gave the opportunity to teach a course on canon law, to speak to a wide audience at the annual conferences of the brotherhood. The site of the Institute was published, perhaps the best of the obituaries written, and the anniversary of a new edition of the book of memories of his father Paul's "Eyewitness" [6] and organized the exhibition "Witness: Priest Paul Adelgeim" (Pskov - "Memorial", Moscow) [ 7].

In the Pskov, St. Petersburg and Moscow, I spoke of the "privatization of memory" Transfiguration commonwealth. In the "memorial environment" hotly debated whether a member of Father Paul Transfiguration brotherhood, what's safe to say the priest Georgy Kochetkov, what is written on the cover of "Transfiguration" edition of the book "Eyewitness" and stated in the announcement of the exhibition. Why "question of membership", that is, the collective / community identity, Father Paul is so important for the community itself and controversial abroad?

Firstly, because his father, Paul is nowhere on this not written and oral testimonies contradict each other.

Secondly, because the scale of his personality - as a pastor, preacher, ascetic, theologian and jurist - is so great that any collective identity narrows it down, trying to determine immense - limited, but universal - local.

Third, because the members of the brotherhood emphasizes the special deep spiritual relationship which united them with his father Paul, that is, themselves emphasize exclusiveness that throws in grain storage environment of competition, alien love.

Mother Vera Adelgeim told two stories.

Representatives of the Transfiguration brotherhood offered her to do in the house Adelgeim Museum. On its puzzling question, "Where is my daughter going to live?" I heard that they can sleep with Mary on the second floor. Museefication memory cost of family health? Faith Adelgeim - an elderly sick woman, Masha important familiar atmosphere of home and tranquility. How can disturb such a family? Have passed through trials and still grieved the tragedy.

The second story sounds like a grotesque version of the legend of the Grail. Her mother Vera told us at the last funeral, standing in the middle of the room with a piece of bloodstained white cloth in his hand: "This is the blood of his father Paul. But this is not the main blood." Dumb. It turned out that on that terrible night when the knife pierced the heart of the murderer of his father, Paul, in the kitchen was a young woman who became hurried to collect her handkerchief, and then the blood of white cloth on the floor and then took it. Mother Vera told about it later, and her insistence to return home rendered the woman (she was one of the Transfiguration brotherhood) brought a small white boards in the blood.

What is it? Sacralization blood? A literal understanding of Tertullian's paraphrase, "the blood of martyrs - the seed of the Church"? Gust one person or position of the brotherhood? I do not know.

Memory Pskov
Parishioners, relatives and friends of his father Paul did Pskov memorial center movement: "Pskov province" published a room dedicated to his father Paul [8]; Paul's faithful assistant of his father actor Victor Yakovlev wrote articles, organized exhibitions, evenings of memory and Adelgeymovskie read [9]; architect Andrei Lebedev set on the grave a unique "Golgotha"; Adelgeim house became the center of attraction for all who cherish the memory of the "patriarch of Pskov."

Pavlov circle Pskov hospitable and open co-creation of memory. Previously unknown to me people this year have become very expensive. Father Paul continues to bring people together, giving them the confidence to each other.

At the same time it is in Pskov acutely feel tense "memory box": pressure of the Diocese forbidding priests to participate in memorial services, care of the local authorities, the indifference of the majority of citizens.

Contrary to this is to Pskov pin their hopes for the future, even if remote, the development of the case of his father Paul restoration regency school, hospital ward creation of the Academy of church law named Paul Adelgeim, worship him as educator and the Holy Martyr.

The memory of love, "Father Paul and his belief"
In September 2013 a mother and daughter Masha Vera arrived group of spiritual children. Paul from St. Petersburg: cleaned the garden, podremontirovali house, washed the windows and began to think that would be more useful to do. "Write an article about Father Paul" - Mother appealed to the psychologist Anatol Osnitsky. He readily responded. Article grew rapidly and six months later became a 800-page manuscript, which was published for the anniversary of the tragic death of the righteous Pskov [11].

The author of the first biography of Father Paul Adelgeim presented his detailed work is not in the Hall Councils of Christ the Savior, even at St. Philaret Institute: nowhere else in the church there was no place for a book about his father Paul Adelgeim. The presentation took place in the secular field of culture (Pskov, St. Petersburg, Moscow).

None of the temple will not sell Adelgeim biography of church bench, if not sold, and his life's work - "The doctrine of the Church in the canons and practice." This is the result of twenty-five years of ecclesiastical freedom: a book about the righteous do not need a church.

The author of the biography genre defined as "the word of the great love in verse and prose, in his memoirs and documents, and the third book of his father Paul."

Anatoly Osnitsky emphasized wrote on the title page the words "faith" and "Love" with a capital letter, which is designed to emphasize the indivisibility of human and divine dimension in the life of his father Paul. As a result, the book was not a double, a triple and a name for sentimental style is reminiscent of the novels of the XVIII century, and according to the author, apparently designed to emphasize that the great suffering his father Paul helped carry him the love of God, faithful companion of his life Faith [11] his family and to all flowed to him in the hope of consolation.

I look at the contents of the book and could not help trying to create "index of forbidden Heads", that is to divide the twenty-four chapters on communicating and unacceptable for the modern church censorship.
So, if I were a church censor ... family tree Adelgeim, arrests and executions, an orphanage for the children of enemies of the people, after the release of the reference mother, the Orthodox teachers - give the go-ahead. Church - martyr, the priesthood righteously. But we need to blank out the story of the sexual harassment of his father Vladimir Nosov to the young altar boy in the mid-1950s and denunciations that the many years avenged Paul Adelgeim. But the story of how the seminary rector of Kiev Filaret (Denisenko) forced to sing Soviet songs seminary May 1 Good Friday and rebellious Adelgeim ordered to write a letter of dismissal from the seminary, you need to leave. It will emphasize timely past sins Kiev Patriarch Filaret, who has never dangerous today for the Moscow Patriarchate in Ukraine. But we must not mention Lenya Whistler, the future Metropolitan of Vinnitsa and Mogilev-Podolsky UPTsMP Macarius, who wrote at the request of Denisenko seminary denunciation Adelgeim in exchange for career bishop. Whistler faithfully served the ROC.

With two bills (Nosov and Whistler), I like the censor ROC, I bless to print only the first four chapters. One hundred pages of eight. The rest is prohibited to publish, because with the fifth chapter - "Big trouble, the hour of trial" - begins the story of his father Paul's ordeal in the courts and camps and the persecution of his defenseless family ... by the church.

Vera Mikhailovna with her three children a new priest, Father Gregory Kolyanda literally chased out of the house, depriving access to water and toilets. If the area camp administration organized three attempts on Adelgeim not allowed Faith and doctors to save his leg, the free church bureaucracy, submissive KGB, long denied him in the ministry.

From the sixteenth chapter - "Eusebius" - Anatoly Osnitsky proceeds to the story of the persecution of the Pskov father Paul, a kind of war that the local bishop for twenty years waged against this priest, consistently destroying by Father Paul parishes, hospital church, a shelter for sick children School regents, calling the best ever written books on canon law satanic, and its author - an enemy of the church.

The book contains many photographs, and among them - the icon of the father of Paul, written by order of the Apostolic Orthodox Church, which canonized Father Paul Adelgeim as the confessor and teacher. As in his time canonized Father Alexander Men, and Archbishop Hermogenes (Golubeva), ordained Paul Adelgeim and inspired him to resist Khrushchev persecution. Following Hermogenes father Paul dared to build a new church, when thousands of closed and destroyed the old.

Is the book to be called "the third book of his father Paul"? Rather, it sounds like a metaphor, though in a sense this right the author has since deployed a lot in the book of quotations from texts of Father Paul, it is based on numerous documents, and the sound of her lyrical verses give Adelgeim. But I would define the genre as a biography, or expand the life of the martyr, in whose fate as noted at the presentation of historian Irina Karatsuba, reflect the history of the Russian Church of the twentieth century as the victim and accomplice of persecution.

Book-life Anatoly Osnitsky movies Maxim Yakubson, [12], speech and memory days, organized by Viktor Yakovlev [13], an exhibition and conference SFI, Adelgeymovskie reading, and - most important! - The works of Father Paul [14] - all these medications that can cure "disease Adelgeymera." Take a regular basis, and on an empty stomach at bedtime.
