On September 2, the wedding of Kirill and Alexandra took place in the parish of the Intercession of the Holy Mother of God in the village of Polomolok in the Philippines. The sacrament was performed by the Secretary of the Philippine-Vietnamese Diocese, Hieromonk Cornelius (Molev). Kirill has been studying at the St. Petersburg Theological Academy for four years now. This wedding has diocesan significance: the path to the priesthood is now open to him (according to tradition in the Orthodox Church, only men who have either already created a family or taken the vow of monasticism are ordained to the priesthood). We wish the young family God’s blessing for many good years!
