protodioannonopko JORDANVILLE, NY: September 18, 2013

On Wednesday, September 18, 2013 , Protodeacon John Onopko, long-time clergyman of Holy Trinity Monastery in Jordanville, NY, reposed in the Lord. He taught Liturgics at Holy Trinity Seminary; many of the current priests and deacons learned the proper practice of divine services from him.

Fr John graduated from Holy Trinity Seminary in Jordanville in 1967, and was ordained to the diaconate more than 30 years ago. Since then, Fr John had served at the monastery, often accompanying Archbishop Laurus, the future First Hierarch of the Russian Orthodox Church Outside of Russia, on his archpastoral journeys, took part in the monastery’s divine services, and served as an example of correct liturgical service.

May the pious servant at the Altar of the Lord have peace everlasting in the Kingdom of Heaven!

Since you are here…

…we do have a small request. More and more people visit Orthodoxy and the World website. However, resources for editorial are scarce. In comparison to some mass media, we do not make paid subscription. It is our deepest belief that preaching Christ for money is wrong.

Having said that, Pravmir provides daily articles from an autonomous news service, weekly wall newspaper for churches, lectorium, photos, videos, hosting and servers. Editors and translators work together towards one goal: to make our four websites possible - Pravmir.ru, Neinvalid.ru, Matrony.ru and Pravmir.com. Therefore our request for help is understandable.

For example, 5 euros a month is it a lot or little? A cup of coffee? It is not that much for a family budget, but it is a significant amount for Pravmir.

If everyone reading Pravmir could donate 5 euros a month, they would contribute greatly to our ability to spread the word of Christ, Orthodoxy, life's purpose, family and society.
