The first church in the ‘Russian’ style is being built on Panglao Island in the Philippines
DECR Communications Service, 05.09.2024.
The construction of a church of the “Quick to Hearken” icon of the Mother of God on Panglao Island located within Bohol Province in the south-central Philippines began three months ago, during which they managed to pour concrete for a foundation, build the first level of the reinforced concrete frame, and begin wall construction.
This will be the first church in the Philippine-Vietnamese diocese designed in the ‘Russian’ style, and the first church of the Russian Orthodox Church on Panglao. At present, it has parishes on Luzon and Mindanao Islands.
There are plans to begin celebrating in the new church next winter, the Diocesan website reports.
