saint. on 20 church holidays, and since the canonization, tens of millions have been here. was canonized quite recently in 1999. at in fact, it can be said that our contemporaries lived in the 20th century, such a dear matronushka of ours it would seem that her whole life should be known. but, when we began to explore, absolutely incredible things were discovered about her biography. you want to say that this is generally a mystical face? there were photos that have not yet been published anywhere. astonishing facts have come to light. it turned out that the matronushka was not born in 1881, as is commonly believed in 1881, 1885, and even we met in 1890. the materials we discovered do not detract from matrona's exploits, on the contrary, they raise him to new heights. she was the way we know her. and even stronger. matrona of moscow - this is a saint who did not build a monastery, did not denounce the authorities and did not convert thousands of people. in orthodoxy, her mission was simply prayer and help to specific people. everyone goes to the relics of the blessed matron

lived and and worked all sort of circulated around their parish and their and their and their church saint nicholas church was the small church where they first started began worshiping in east boston, and then that was later expanded into a cathedral and so the priests in their life or were incredibly influential and important. i found a remarkable collection of research about the the history of the archdiocese of boston. it's a huge to think three volume. history of that and it introduced me to some of the priests and and archbishops who were in involved deeply in the kennedy's lives. we know that they were that that they were churchgoers. we know that they all they had all their children baptized at the local church, and he's each bought east boston. and so i think faith was was vital to them. i think it you could argue that that's probably what helped get bridget through some of the more tragic and challenging periods of her life and and then pj and his wife were extremely devout. in fact one they and toward the end of their life pj's wife. mary died in 1926 late. she had a small altar

does anybody know what church we're looking at here? this is saint philippe's episcopal church in charleston south carolina. so denominations like the episcopal church, presbyterian, methodist, the main line or establishment churches. if you look at any major category, attendants, income what they are giving. in virtually every category they are going down during the 1930s. if you live in the 1930s, i don't think billy graham is not as visible publicly as he used to be. he's very elderly and not well. but in the 1930s, there was a visible minister in the media and that would be harry emerson fosdick. and he is a liberal participant he's a liberal protestant. and this man the idea is that he would deny many of the supernatural aspects of christianity. such as, bodily resurrection of christ. he is the pastor at riverside church in manhattan. in new york city. and what he is focusing on and what his church is focusing on in the 1930s, you could predict that is caring for people in economic need. so more of an outgrowth of what is known as the social gos

anybody know what gorgeous church we're looking at here. this is a saint phillips episcopal. church in charleston, south carolina so denominations like the episcopal church presbyterian methodist the main line or some would say establishment churches if you look at any major category attendance? income what they're giving? in virtually every category they are going down during the 1930s. if you lived in the 1930s, i don't think billy graham is not as visible publicly as he used to be. he's very elderly and not well. but in the 1930s probably the most visible minister in the media. would be hairy emerson fosdick and he is a good example of a liberal protestant. and what makes somebody a liberal protestant? they're not all the same, but for this man probably. the idea that he would deny many of the supernatural aspects of christianity such as the bodily resurrection of christ. he is the pastor at riverside church in manhattan. in new york city and what he is. focusing on and what his church is focusing on in the 1930s you could predict that is caring for people in economic need

petersburg, they have been consecrated as saints by the orthodox churchg, in that service at the monastery, the priest went to the back room, you could hear them singing and doing whatever they do, and the ordinary people are just making a circuit of the icons and crossing themselves, and the actual heavy lifting is being done in secret, is if behind the kremlin walls, except it's on the back room of this church. it's interesting, the power being used for propaganda purposes, but i double and triple checked, it's online, so you can be sure? a website two years ago, they noted that on this cruiser whichjust sank on the black sea, they had a golden cross and embedded in that golden cross was a sliver of the true cross. this was on the website, so i will say take it with a grain of salt, but nevertheless the idea that in the 21st—century you would put this to your people, that a piece of the true cross is on our flagship in the black sea is to me astonishing. the patriarch is a nice two piece of work. - he let his priests bless - the bombs in syria and crime
