At the Vnukovo airport, a special board landed with the Holy Fire from Jerusalem.
The shrine from Israel was delivered by a delegation of the Andrew the First-Called Foundation. The Holy Fire will be transferred to the Cathedral of Christ the Savior for the patriarchal service, RIA Novosti informs.
The fire descended in the Church of the Holy Sepulcher in Jerusalem. Representatives of ten countries received the shrine, including the Russian ambassador to Israel, Anatoly Viktorov, who handed the fire over to the foundation’s delegates.
