Orthodoxe

1988 — xiv, 94 pages. Generously illustrated with reproductions of black and white photos. "In 1988 the Russian Orthodox Church is celebrating 1,000 years of uninterrupted witness to Jesus Christ and His Holy Church in the Lands of Rus and throughout the whole world. Our forefathers, the pioneers who came to Canada in the late 1890s and early 1900s, were free to follow the Faith of their Forefathers - the Russian Greek Orthodox Faith. In this book, through the efforts of many, we are presenting the histories of twenty-five Patriarchal Parishes in Canada, that continue to live in the faith of their forefathers." - Introduction.
