December 1: Metropolitan Hilarion to rebury Bishop Constantine (Essensky) of Richmond at Holy Trinity Monastery
12/1: Metropolitan Hilarion to rebury Bp. Constantine (Essensky) Holy Trinity Monastery

With the blessing of His Eminence, Metropolitan Hilarion, the brethren of Holy Trinity Monastery have transported the remains of the ever-memorable Bishop Constantine (Essensky; +1996) from a former monastery in Blanco, TX to Jordanville, NY. On Monday, December 1st, the First Hierarch of the Russian Church Abroad will rebury Bishop Constantine in a dignified resting place behind the main cathedral, where many other archpastors of the Russian Diaspora are interred.

Approximately $10,000 is needed to cover the costs associated with Bishop Constantine’s relocation. Therefore, with the blessing of Metropolitan Hilarion, the brethren of Holy Trinity Monastery appeal to all those who love God, to all who hold dear the memory of Bishop Constantine, who served the Russian Church on three continents – Europe, America, and Australia – to please help in this God-pleasing endeavor.
