loving fathers, brothers and sisters!
We, the bishops of the Russian Orthodox Church, gathered in the ancient town of Suzdal, welcome all you and call upon you God's blessing.
as you remember, in the sixties and seventies, the St. Filaret, the Primate of the Russian Orthodox Church Outside of some their messages called "sorrowful." Alas! - Our present to you the appeal on the merits is not.
you know about the persecution and harassment, which descended on our church in the last few years. That - and the relentless slander spread by newspapers and television ... This is unjust courts, which are selected have recovered from the ruins and temples of our blagoukrashennye ...
And we have every reason to believe that soon the powers that be do not stop the persecution of our church, for the Moscow Patriarchate - our main foe - becomes part of the state machine.
We can not be not alarming and the situation that existed in the so-called "world Orthodoxy". All The local "church" involved in the disastrous "vseeres ecumenism" almost all of them were "popish", "Gregorian Calendar" and its "local councils" abolish the canonical establishment of the Orthodox Church.
Besides these apostates is actively preparing a sort of "Pan-Orthodox Conference, what are the lawless bunch in advance is declared more and no less, as "the Eighth Ecumenical Council"!
In addition, we are seriously concerned about the frequent contacts and direct negotiations of the Moscow Patriarchate с католиками, и тут мы видим еще одно свидетельство того, что наши гонители отошли от Истинной Веры «на страну далече».
Всечестные отцы, братья и сестры!
Yes, we have the misfortune to live in the time for Christians is very serious. But we with you, no one promised "paradise on earth." On the contrary, the true prophets, which Lord sent our people - Saint Theophan Recluse, Ignatius (Brianchaninov), St. John of Kronstadt, directly warned about the offensive it is such sad times. And therefore we will not surrender cowardice and despair, but "with all my heart, all my soul, all your mind" let us keep faithful to Holy Orthodoxy.
And so help us God Almighty!
