On August 24, 2016, four lesser cupolas were installed in a solemn ceremony on the Cathedral of the Trinity under construction on the Branley Embankment in Paris. The cupolas and crosses were blessed by Bishop Nestor, administrator of the Diocese of Chersonese, on March 19, 2016, before the main cupola was installed.

The event was attended by the Russian Ambassador in France Alexander Orlov, staff members of the Russian diplomatic mission in Paris, representatives of the French construction contracting company Bouygues, and representatives of this company headed by the chief architect of the cathedral, Mr. Jean-Michel Wilmot.

The delegation of the Diocese of Chersonese was led by Rev. Maxim Politov, secretary of the diocesan administration. With this ceremony the final stage of the exterior decoration of the diocese of Chersonese’s new cathedral in Paris was completed.

Since you are here…

…we do have a small request. More and more people visit Orthodoxy and the World website. However, resources for editorial are scarce. In comparison to some mass media, we do not make paid subscription. It is our deepest belief that preaching Christ for money is wrong.

Having said that, Pravmir provides daily articles from an autonomous news service, weekly wall newspaper for churches, lectorium, photos, videos, hosting and servers. Editors and translators work together towards one goal: to make our four websites possible - Pravmir.ru, Neinvalid.ru, Matrony.ru and Pravmir.com. Therefore our request for help is understandable.

For example, 5 euros a month is it a lot or little? A cup of coffee? It is not that much for a family budget, but it is a significant amount for Pravmir.

If everyone reading Pravmir could donate 5 euros a month, they would contribute greatly to our ability to spread the word of Christ, Orthodoxy, life's purpose, family and society.
