Your Holiness! His Holiness the Lord and Father!
CHRIST IS RISEN!

On your name day, please accept sincere congratulations and warmest wishes from the clergy, monastics and laity of the Khanty-Mansiysk diocese and from me personally!

God has judged you to steer the church ship in times of change, in times of great changes in the life of the country and the Church, in times of change in the whole world. The whole world is looking at us now. We live in an era of the revival of Christian values, peaceful existence, and therefore the burden of your service undoubtedly requires the support and prayers of the people of God, co-workers of Christ. We assure you of our prayers for you, Your Holiness!

Through the prayers of your Heavenly Patron, may the All-Generous Lord grant you spiritual and physical strength in the difficult and selfless service of the Primate of the Russian Orthodox Church!
