The Spirit of St. Vladimir's

[@181paglione]

This beautiful video of Father Alexander Schmemann brought tears to my eyes. A very holy and special priest who is sorely missed even to this day. I am a Latin rite Catholic who frequently participates in and enjoys the beautiful Divine Liturgy of St. John Chrysostom. But the reality of the great Schism which separates our holy Churches causes me and my fellow Catholic Christians great regret and pain. I pray daily to the Holy Spirit that our Churches may one day, very soon, re-unite in holiness

When Roman Catholics jettison the theology surrounding the Pope, his authority and his infallibility, then there is a chance of unity of faith, prayer and worship.

Simply stunning. A great tribute and wonderful depiction of the life and work of the inimicable +Protopresbyter Alexander Schmemann, one of the foremost American Eastern Orthodox theologians, if not the finest. ☦️ Memory Eternal!

I converted to the Orthodox Church through the works of Fr. Schmemann.

Beautiful. Eternal Memory to one of the Greatest Theologians of the Eastern Church in the 20th century.

[@ChrisTopher-id4mz]

anyone know where I can find a copy of the hymn sung at 29:15

[@ajflamingo5839]

Chris Topher I believe that is Bortiniansky’s Cherubic Hymn, No. 7. It can be easily found here or on iTunes.

Really orthodox Church is very tough to follow common man. Catholicism is best for present generation. Praise the lord Jesus Christ 🙏 and mother Mary

Now it shouldn’t be hard for you to find out which is the true Church.
