Pilgrimage Department of the Minsk Diocese
The pilgrimage department of the Minsk Diocese was created on May 16, 2005 by Decree of His Eminence Metropolitan Philaret of Minsk and Slutsk. Archpriest Alexander Shiriton, rector of St. Seraphim parish in Minsk, was appointed head of the department.
Despite the fact that Belarus was conquered many times in its history, it was never itself a conqueror and was able to maintain not only its faith, but also friendly relations with its neighbors. At the same time, being located in the very center of industrial Europe, Belarus was able to preserve universal human values, centuries-old culture and wildlife.
Orthodoxy in Belarus is more than a thousand years old. A centuries-old history of heroism, joy, patience, tears and prayer... Hosts of ascetics who glorified God and Faith with their lives, service to people and creativity... Numerous churches and monasteries, surviving and again revived...
We have something to tell our brothers, our children, and our guests. Since ancient times, Belarusians have been traveling on their own and inviting friends to pray in their native monasteries and churches, to get in touch with their amazing history and unique culture.
We love our country and respect our guests. After many years of atheistic sleep, souls awaken and thirst. We will gladly and lovingly tell our compatriots and fellow believers about our Orthodox country. Acquaintance with the most different aspects of our life does not leave anyone indifferent. Come to us, ride with us, and you will see for yourself.
Christ is in our midst!
