🙏 On September 21, the Church of the Intercession at the Embassy of Russia in Islamabad held a Divine Liturgy marking the Feast of the Nativity of the Most Holy Theotokos. The service was led by Hegumen Varlaam (Dulsky), who provides pastoral care to the Embassy parish.

🇷🇺🇧🇾 Ambassador Albert P. Khorev and Ambassador of Belarus to Pakistan Andrey Metelitsa joined Embassy staff and their family members in prayer during the service.

The celebration continued with a joyful occasion as three family members of Embassy staff received the Sacrament of Baptism, becoming new members of the Orthodox Christian community.
