Editorial Reviews
Album Description
Since the fall of Communism the Church, and the entire world, has come to a more complete knowledge of the crimes against humanity committed in the Russian Empire and Soviet Union by those dedicated to the destruction of Tsarist rule, the Orthodox and other Christian Churches, and religion in general, for the cause of atheist "revolution." An estimated 45 million people and more were slain out of a programmed hatred and paranoia. The Archpriest Gregory Petroff was a man who lived and died under this madness. It is said that Fr. Gregory was murdered while in a prison camp, but not before he was able to pen the poignant Akathist of Thanksgiving, giving to the Church and to the world light from great darkness, reminding us that even in the midst of frightful suffering true Christian conviction and courage are unconquerable.
All proceeds from this recording of the Akathist will go to the St. Ignatius of Antioch Mission building fund as we continue the work of establishing our community in Madison, Wisconsin.
