On February 20, Archimandrite Kirill (Pavlov) was prayerfully remembered at the Seraphim-Diveyevo monastery. He, the confessor of the Trinity St. Sergius Lavra for many years, departed this life unto the Lord four years ago today.

The sisters of the Diveyevo monastery cherish the memory of Archimandrite Kirill’s visit to Diveyevo in 1996. He venerated the relics of Venerable Seraphim of Sarov, walked at the Holy Kanavka, talked to the clergy, spoke with Matushka Hegumenia and sisters, and visited Schema Nun Margarita (Lakhtionova).

Following the late-morning liturgy at the Dormition Church, Rev. Fr. Alexey Kurnosov, the priest of the Seraphim-Diveyevo monastery, served panihkida in his memory.
