OMSK - Cathedral of the Dormition of the Mother of God ( Assumption Cathedral)
One of the most marvelous city cathedrals — the Cathedral of the Assumption — suffered a complicated destiny. The necessity to build this cathedral appeared in 1879 when the Omsk clergy decided to widen the Resurrection Cathedral which was too small for all the congregations coming to services. The General-Governor of Western Siberia G. Mescherinov proposed to build a new cathedral instead of widening the old one. On July 16 (28), 1891, the future Emperor Nicholas II took part in the ceremony of laying the foundation of the Assumption Cathedral.
The laying of the cathedral was carried out by Nizhny Novgorod bricklayers. The building was made of red bricks, plastered outside; interiors were decorated with frescos and stucco ornaments. In 1898 nine bells were hoisted and three altars were consecrated: the high altar in the name of the Assumption of the Virgin Mary, the southern and northern altars — in the names of Nicholas the Wonderworker and Mary Magdalene respectively.
The building was erected mostly due to donations of the townspeople, Russian merchants and Emperor Nicholas II; some funds were contributed by the State treasury. In total 125,000 Rubles were spent on building. Assumption Cathedral was dedicated on September 9 (21), 1898. Built in the open territory of a big town square, the Assumption Cathedral could easily be seen from every angle, and it made a lasting impression on visitors and onlookers.
In the 1930s — as a result of mass antireligious campaigns echoed all over the country — the Cathedral was blown up. In 2005 during a regular session of the Government of Omsk Region a decision was made to restore this wonderful religious building. On October 14, 2005, on the most important Orthodox Church feast — Intercession of the Theotokos — the first foundation stone of the restored cathedral was laid. On July 15, 2007, the Assumption Cathedral opened its doors for the church community.

모스크바 성모 승천 대성당 [ Cathedral of the Dormition, Moscow]
러시아 모스크바 붉은광장 서쪽 대성당 광장(Cathedral Square) 북쪽면에 위치한다.
15세기 말에 지어진 건물로 1475년에 시작되어 1480년에 완공되었다.
이탈리아 볼로냐 출신의 건축가인 아리스토텔레 피오라반디(Aristotele Fioravanti)를 러시아로 초빙하여 건축하였다.
그는 러시아의 전통적인 건축과 미술을 공부하기 위해 블라디미르(Vladimir)를 여행하였으며 그곳에 있는 대성당(Assumption Cathedral)의 구조를 참고하여 만들었다고 전해진다.
5년에 걸쳐 만들어진 교회는 러시아의 전통적인 건축예술과 르네상스 교회건축미술 잘 조화된 것으로 평가된다. 건물의 외형은 5개의 황금색 돔으로 이루어져 있으며 이는 예수와 네명의 전도사인 마테(matthew), 마가(mark), 누가(luke), 요한(john)을 의미한다.
그리고 건물의 형태는 직사각형을 이룬다. 주 출입문은 동쪽을 향하고 북쪽과 남쪽에 출입문이 위치한다. 재단은 건물 서쪽에 배치되어 있다. 대성당 내부는 화려한 재단과 성인들의 이콘화가 프레스코로 그려져 있으며, 특히 블라디미르의 성모(Theotokos of Vladimir), 성 게오르기 상과 삼위일체 상이 유명하다. 과거 러시아 황제의 대관식이 이곳에서 거행되었다.

Interview with Metropolitan Jonah - Russian Orthodox Church Outside of Russia
Interview with His Eminence Metropolitan Jonah, former Archbishop of Washington, and Metropolitan of All America and Canada with the Orthodox Church in America (OCA).
Since his retirement as primate and subsequent release from the OCA, His Eminence has served as a bishop of the Russian Orthodox Church Outside Russia (ROCOR) in the USA.
His Eminence’s election had signified a monumental milestone for the OCA church, having been a convert to Orthodox Christianity in his early adult life, to go on to become the first convert to ever be elected as primate of the OCA.
The interview delves on the following topics:
- Metropolitan Jonah’s journey to Orthodox Christianity.
- Orthodox treatment of the Virgin Mary and the saints.
- Temptation, the Jesus prayer and focusing thoughts when praying.
- Knowing your faith, finding healing in our lives and Orthodox Christians serving as missionaries in Christ.
Please accept my apologies in advance that the quality of the interview may be a little rusty on my side, however it is hoped that as we look to continue with further interviews in the future, God willing we will improve on these and be able to use them as an opportunity to learn from passionate God-loving faces in the Orthodox faith.
*** For those interested, the book mentioned by Metropolitan Jonah in the interview is, ‘The Mystical Theology of the Eastern Church’ by Vladimir Lossky.

Храм Пророка Илии в Обыденском переулке.
The church was built in 1702 - 06 (architect - I.P. Zarudny) on the money of the Duma clerk Gavriil Fedorovich Derevnin and his brother Basil (buried on the both sides of the arch connecting the main church and the refectory) in the place of a wooden church (the 16th century). According to legend, the wooden church was built by the Grand Prince Basil the Third under the promise (vow) by all world, obydenkoy, obyden i.e. during one day from the prepared frameworks (from that fact there is a common name such as The Church of Elijah Obydenny).
In 1611 this church was burned up by Polish soldiers. In 1612, before the critical battle with the army of Hetman Khodkevich trying to cut way to the Harrison of the Polish and Lithuanian interventionists besieged in the Kremlin and Kitai-Gorod there was the Headquarters of D.M. Pozharsky. In the second half of the 17th century in the church the ceremonial entries of the Russian tsars took place as well as the religious processions came out of the Kremlin in summer holidays and during draughts with praying for the rain. In that period the nobles parishioner presented the shroud of Christ embroidered with silver and gold (1690).
In 1706 for servicing in winter the warm refectory church was attached to the cold temple. In 1748 it was damaged in great fire, in 1753 it was restored by the Brigadier N.A. Bolkunov.
After many re-buildings the church lost its original appearance.
The church is quadrangular, crowned with the cupola on a wide slim octagonal tholobate, arched with eight-though vault. The altar jogs are on a high basement because of steep slope of the Moskva River. At the entrance to the refectory there is a single-domed bell tower. On the column in the right part of the refectory there are icons of Christ the Saviour and St. Nicholas the Wonderworker (with hagiography stamps).
In the first tier of the iconostasis of the central altar there are icons from the wooden church of the 16th century: the Icon of Saviour not made by hands (1675, work of S. Ushakov, located to the right of the Holy Gate) on the margin of which there are 12 appearances of the Resurrected Christ; Kazan icon of the Mother of God (S. Ushakov and his students, to the left of the Holy Gate); St. Elijah's Fiery Ascent into Heaven (the 16th century, with 20 hagiographic stamps on the margin). These and other icons of the 17th century: Beheading John the Baptist, St. Nicholas the Wonderworker, John the Warrior the Martyr (it is supposed to be the work of S. Ushakov's pupil, Kazantsev), Vladimir Mother of God (master of the Armory Department, A. Ryazantsev), Dormition of the Theotokos are under protection of the government. In 1944 the particularly valuable miracle-working icon of the Mother of God Unexpected Joy was handed over to the Church (from the Moscow Kremlin Church of Annunciation destroyed in the 1930-ies, until 1944 the icon was in the Church of the Resurrection in Sokolniki; was installed on the southern choir of the central side-chapel).
After 1917 it was not closed. In 1922 the authorities withdrew the valuable objects from the church. In the beginning of the 1930-ies the bells were thrown down. To this church many nuns and novices moved from the Convent of the Conception closed in 1924 as well as many church-goers of some closed churches came there and handed over the ancient icons. During the Great Patriotic War it suffered from the explosion of high-explosive bomb fallen near the church.
