Archbishop Hilarion’s book "Patriarch Kirill. His Life and World Outlook" comes out

122

Archbishop Hilarion’s book entitled Patriarch Kirill. His Life and World Outlook in the series “Patriarchs of the Russian Church’ has come out. It has been written in response to numerous requests from both church people and those who are far from the Church but who are interested in the personality of the new Patriarch of Moscow and All Russia.

His Holiness Kirill is a public figure. The scale of his work is unprecedented. His judgments on basic issues of today are well known to those who follow closely the life of the Church. At the same time, it has occurred to no one so far to systematize his thoughts expressed at various times, in various audiences and on various occasions. Until now there has been no detailed biography of Patriarch Kirill except for an official list of services he rendered and responsibilities he shouldered in the Church.

The book is called to fill these gaps. It has been published by the Exmo Publishing House, Moscow, in 8 thousand copies.

The first people to see and buy this unique edition will be visitors to the Orthodox Russia exhibition forum ‘Towards the Day of People’s Unity’ to be held from November 4 to 8, 2009, at the Manezh Central Exhibition Hall. The book will be available at the stand of the Department for External Church Relations.
