Congratulations to Metropolitan Pavel on the Day of the Angel.
Your Eminence! Dear Vladyka!
The staff of the diocesan administration, the clergy and parishioners of the churches of the Khanty-Mansiysk Metropolia congratulate you on the day of your heavenly patron, the Venerable Pavel Obnorsky, the Miracleworker of Komel! It is gratifying to see that the Yugra land under your administration is being decorated with new temples and monasteries. All these are the fruits of your tireless labors, prayers and reflections on the welfare of the church at the Khanty-Mansiysk See entrusted to you by God! You are carrying out God-given high archpastoral service for the benefit of the Church in the Yugra land, giving all your bodily and mental strength for this. You guide the flock entrusted to you by the Lord on the right path, taking care of the beauty and splendor of the parishes, edifying and helping all those working in the field of the Church with fatherly love. On the day of your Angel, we thank you from the bottom of our hearts and wish you God’s help in your archpastoral ministry, good health, and inexhaustible energy, which may the Lord grant you through the prayers of St. Pavel! Many happy years to you!
