2015 Christmas Service in HK Russian Orthodox Peter&Paul Church.
Peter and Paul church in Sevastopol
The Cathedral is located on the Central City’s Hill. It was originally built in 1814 in Greek style, but during the Crimean War it was almost destroyed. Later it was renovated, but during the Soviet times and up to 2006 it served as the city’s archive and the House of Culture. The Cathedral isn’t very big, but makes sublime impression. As it befits the Antique temple, it is raised above the ground floor. There are 44 columns made of Sarmatian limestone placed along the perimeter of the Cathedral. On the east pediment there is a sculpture of the all-seeing eye.

The first residential building in St. Petersburg: Cabin of Peter the Great
The cabin of Peter the Great (is a small wooden house which was the first St Petersburg palace of Tsar Peter I.
The log cabin was constructed in three days in May 1703, by soldiers of the Semyonovskiy Regiment. At that time, the new St Petersburg was described as a heap of villages linked together, like some plantation in the West Indies. The date of its construction is now considered to mark the foundation of the city.
The design is a combination of an izba, a traditional Russian countryside house typical of the 17th century, and the Tsar's beloved Dutch Baroque, later to evolve into the Petrine Baroque. Peter built similar domiki elsewhere in Russia - for example, in Voronezh, and Vologda. The wooden cabin in St Petersburg covers only 60 square meters (650 sq ft) and contains three rooms - living room, bedroom, and study. It has large ornate windows and a high hipped roof of wooden tiles. Inside, the wooden walls were painted with red oil to resemble brick, and the rooms came to be known as the red chambers. There are no fires or chimneys, as it was intended to be used only in the warmer summer months. It was occupied by the Tsar between 1703 and 1708, while Peter supervised the construction of the new imperial city and the Peter and Paul Fortress.
The cabin was moved to its present location, 6 Petrovskaia Naberezhnaia, in 1711 from its original site on the north bank of the River Neva close to the present Winter Palace. Peter had it encased for its protection within a red brick pavilion in 1723 and ordered that it be preserved for posterity as a memorial to his modesty, and the creation of St Petersburg ex nihilo. Catherine the Great ordered the shelter for the cabin to be renovated in 1784, and the protective brick pavilion was reconstructed by Nicholas I in the 1840s. Nicholas I also had the bedroom converted into a chapel dedicated to Christ the Redeemer, and iron railings were added in 1874.
Peter's domiki were used to mark significant dates, such as the bicentenary of Peter's birth in 1672. They became a center of devotion to the tsar, the Russian Orthodox Church, and the Russian motherland. An image of the log cabin was included on the Peter the Great Fabergé egg, created in 1903 to celebrate the bicentenary of the founding of St Petersburg. After the Russian Revolution, they became symbols of Russian heroic labor.
A prized national monument, the contents were removed, and the Cabin was boarded up and camouflaged during the Second World War. It was the first St Petersburg museum to reopen in September 1944, after the end of the Siege of Leningrad. Personal and domestic objects owned and used by Peter are still displayed within, and a bust of Peter by Parmen Zabello stands outside. The cabin is open to the public as a branch of the Russian Museum.

Patriarch’s Christmas address: Orthodox Church prays for peace in Ukraine
Christmas Eve service | Christ The Savior Cathedral | Moscow
As Russia celebrates Orthodox Christmas, the Patriarch of Moscow and All Russia, Kirill, has delivered his traditional address to believers. He said he prays for peace in Ukraine above all.
As millions of worshippers across Russia gathered for Christmas night liturgies on January 6, Patriarch Kirill addressed the Orthodox community with words of peace, paying special attention to the conflict in Ukraine.
“On these holy Christmas days, the prayers of the whole Church and my augmented litany are for peace on the Ukrainian soil,” Kirill said in his address.
He added that “regardless of the place of residence of its children, their political views or preferences,” the Russian Orthodox Church is doing everything possible to bring people together to help them overcome the consequences of conflicts.
Patriarch Kirill mentioned that 2015 is the year in which the Orthodox Church celebrates 1,000 years since the death of Vladimir the Great, the ruler who baptized Kievan Rus’ in the 9th century.
He pointed out that Ukrainians and Russians are bound by centuries-old spiritual and cultural ties which cannot be broken by any “external forces.” Orthodox Christianity remains the main religion of Ukraine.
The Russian president remained faithful to the tradition of celebrating Orthodox Christmas in small churches.
On the night of January 7, Vladimir Putin took part in the Christmas service at the Church of the Intercession of the Holy Virgin in the village of Otradnoye, near the southern city of Voronezh, some 600 kilometers from Moscow.
Parishioners this year, along with local residents, were the children from the orphanage at the Church.
The place of worship, which is included in the list of cultural heritage sites, can accommodate up to 450 members. It was built in 1901 but after 29 years of service, was closed, so the building was used as a granary. Work to restore the cathedral began in 1991 and was finished in the early 2000s.
The Orthodox Church follows the Julian Calendar, which is 13 days behind the Gregorian Calendar adopted by the Catholic Church. Orthodox Christians celebrate Christmas on January 7. -RT.

Nikolai Ge: A collection of 96 paintings (HD)
Nikolai Ge: A collection of 96 paintings (HD)
Description: Nikolai Ge, a Russian realist painter, was born on February, 27, 1831 in Voronezh, to a Russian noble family of French origin. His grandfather emigrated to Russia in the 18th century. Ge got his education in the First Kiev Gymnasium and then he studied at the physics-mathematics department of Kiev University and then at St. Petersburg University. In 1850 he gave up his career in science and entered the Imperial Academy of Arts in St. Petersburg, where he studied art under the painter Pyotr Basin until 1857. Nikolai graduated from the academy in 1857 with a gold medal for his painting “The Witch of Endor Calling up the Spirit of the Prophet Samuel”. After that he was given a scholarship and went abroad. Ge visited Germany, Switzerland and France. Finally in 1860 Nikolai settled in Florence. In 1863 Ge painted “The Last Supper” took the painting with him to St. Petersburg. The painting (bought by Alexander II of Russia) made such a strong impression on public that Ge was made a professor of Imperial Academy of Arts. In 1864 he returned to Florence where he became a friend of the famous writer and thinker Alexander Herzen and painted his portrait. The same year he also painted landscapes, portraits and a big picture “Messengers of the Resurrection”. The new religious painting at that time was not much of a success, and the Imperial Academy refused to exhibit it in its annual exhibition. In 1870 Ge again returned to St. Petersburg there he turned to Russian history for subject matter. The painting “Peter the Great Interrogates Tsarevich Alexey at Peterhof” (1871) was a great success, but other historical paintings were met without interest. Ge took the cold response to his work very hard. He bought a small khutor in Chernigov gubernia and moved there. In 1882 in Moscow Ge got acquainted with Leo Tolstoy and painted his portrait in 1884. In the early 1880s he returned to art producing religious paintings and portraits of his contemporaries. His late paintings had sad and dramatic fate: “Quod Est Veritas? Christ and Pilate” (1890) was expelled from the exhibition; “The Judgment of the Sanhedrin: He is Guilty! “(1892) was not admitted to the annual Academy of Arts exhibition; “The Calvary (Golgotha)” (1893) remained unfinished; “The Crucifixion” (1894) was banned by Alexander III for blasphemy and so on. Ge died on his farm on June, 13, 1894.

Fifth Day of Not Christmas (For Orthodox Christians)
The leavetaking (apodosis) of Christmas was December 31. The Seven Days of Christmas are over. Here’s something you can sing instead of the popular Western carol, “The Twelve Days of Christmas.”
On the fifth day of Not-Christmas,
my godson gave to me
five empty plates,
four preaching monks,
three Parisian Jens,
two Russian saints,
and an icon of Saint Basil the Great.
