Russian Church helps to Filipinos in need

On August 19, with the support of the Synodal Department for Social service of the Russian Orthodox Church, the parish of st. Matrona of Moscow in Davao organized another round of humanitarian aid in barangay 76A “Bukana”.
First of all, the elderly and pregnant women who do not have support received food packages. In total, 100 food packages were distributed.
Before the action, the Kagawad of the barangay presented the audience the Russian Orthodox Church and thanked it for helping Filipinos in need. Then the Secretary of the Philippines-Vietnamese diocese hieromonk Korniliy told about the history of the Orthodoxy and pointed that Russian Church exists not only for Russians. Russian people have always been ready to help those in need, and the most precious thing they want to share is the true Apostolic Orthodox faith that leads to eternal life.
