A year ago, we recorded a long interview with our students from the Philippines and Indonesia, who are studying at the St. Petersburg Theological Academy. During this conversation, we had a sincere conversation with the Indonesian student Dimitry Situmeang, now Hieromonk Kirill, who went through a difficult path in search of the true faith, full of trials and great love for the Lord. A conversation with a student who was dreaming about building a monastery in Indonesia. Let everything work out according to the will of God!

With all our heart – Axios, dear father Kirill!
