The Church is against war. Full stop. The Church prays for peace at every Divine Service. Full stop. The Church welcomes all that seek the Heavenly Kingdom no matter their nationality, because our true homeland IS the Heavenly Kingdom. We are pilgrims on this earth. Don’t be confused: our Festival is a Russian Orthodox festival. Christ is the center. There are no politics of the world here. Bring yourself, your family, your friends, and leave politics at home – just as we do every time we come to church.
