Russian Orthodox seminary to open near Paris

A Russian Orthodox seminary will open in France in September. The issue was discussed at a meeting in Moscow between the head of the Moscow Patriarchate’s External Church Relations Department Archbishop Illarion and the French Ambassador to Russia Jean de Gliniasti. The seminary will be located at a former Catholic monastery in the town of Epinay-sous-Senar near Paris. Some classes and lectures will be moved to Paris. The seminary will run special courses for anyone keen to learn more about Russian Orthodoxy and its theological and liturgic legacy.
