Saint John of Kronstadt: Life, Service & Akathist Hymn

trans. Isaac Lambertsen


A “flagship” publication of the press, the Life of St. John here presented is designed for simplicity and ease of comprehension (though by no means a children’s book!). The liturgical service and akathist hymn in his honor accompany the life. Thus under one cover are found both understanding and prayer, for those who wish to honor the blessed Father. This edition is especially well suited for giving to others some understanding of one who is rightly understood to have a special concern for the life of the Church not only in his native Russia, but in our native land as well — he at one time felt called to the American mission, but the Church needed him worse at home.
