Default All Happy Easter. Another year of living)))

At the airport Vnukovo aircraft landed on board from Jerusalem to Moscow brought a particle of the Holy Fire . Divine flame and delivered to other Russian cities . Delegation from the Holy Land, went to Christ the Saviour Cathedral , where the closer to midnight starts the main Easter service . Having made it , Patriarch of Moscow and All Russia, headed by Cyril solemn procession .
Flame kindled in the Temple of the Holy Sepulchre in Jerusalem after the prayers of the faithful and the Patriarch of Jerusalem Theophilos . By tradition , the chapel over the tomb he went unmasked to his cassock , with no matches and fire sources . Primate has appeared with burning candles . From them, people lit their candles , the flame passed on to each other and washed with fire . Those not lucky enough to get into the temple to observe everything happening on the huge screens .
