Preparation is ongoing to transition the non-canonical community of Gabon to the Russian Orthodox Church.
With this purpose, a missionary Alexander Lyulka visited the country, where he gave catechetical talks in all four parishes inside the community: Libreville, Ntoum, and Abing-Assi.
«Believers were listening to the lectures with genuine interest. They learned about the differences between Orthodoxy, Catholicity, and Protestantism, they asked questions, and asked for books – it is a great pleasure to see such a desire to learn about the faith. Apart from the lectures, Alexander Vyacheslavovich held a workshop on church singing in the Russian Orthodox tradition,» wrote Metropolitan Leonid of Klin in his Telegram channel.
