"In the name of the Father and the Son and the Holy Spirit! Amen.

"The eternal memory will be the righteous ..." (Ps. 111, 6-7).

Father Kirill, Archimandrite, the confessor of the Trinity-Sergiye Lavra, knew, maybe hundreds of thousands of people of multi-million dollars, but it comes to him much more people - those who did not know him come to him.

V. O. Klyuchevsky wrote about the reverend, that many of those who go to them, know a little about the reverend, but go to them. Go to the father of Kirill, because they believe in his prayers, they believe in him as in the righteous.

Father-renunal told me that yesterday was 10,000 postcards with his image and yesterday they were all distributing.

What do people have an amazing feeling of reverence and a sense of security! Why? The feature of the Kirill's father is that he lived as he said. Few of people live as they say, many can speak beautifully, but to live as you say, can units. And the life of the father of Kirill did not oppose him in words: he said, as he said, and the commandment of love, about love to neighbor and God, he fulfilled completely, and all those who knew him met with him and admired his love, love To all those who came to him, love for people and God.

Father Kirill left us a body; We believe that there, in the heavenly abode, he will pray for us, and, orphans, we understand that they must inherit him in love, his love to neighbor: not to divide on their own and strangers, on friends and to the enemies, and love people, i.e. Forget about yourself and remember that we must be a support for those who are next to us. It will be the best commemoration of the father of Father Kirill - our life that will not disperse with our words. And the Lord it stops him where there is no disease, nor sadness, no frustration, but the life is infinite. " But due to the fact that his soul and heart are filled with love, he will continue to pray for us and ask God for the Lord to help us become worthy of the Father of Heaven. Amen!"

Upon completion of the paneirchide, the brotherhood of the Trinity-Sergiye Lavra and guests in the sacred sane were invited to fraternal refectory for a memorial meal, which once again performed "Eternal Memory" on acknowledged Father Kirill.


In the 40th days from the date of the presumption of Archimandrite Kirill With joy in the heart, the words of one of his unforgettable sermons are heard about the upcoming holiday of the Light Christ of Resurrection - Easter of the Lord:

Rejoice and perceive in your heart the joy of salvation and getting rid of! Let in clean and light feelings from the light of Christ of the Resurrection dissolve everything that brings your cloud of sadness and grief on the heart! And if you do not care about your sins, I remember that although you are poor in good deeds, but God is rich in Milosts to you. The door of repentance does not shove for you, and through this door you will enter the full joy of this day. Ignite, reverse to God from the depths of the soul about your sins! Now they cry from joy, and you will rejoice from our tears. Fun shedding the tears of repentance, sweetly cry about sins.

Tatyana Vilainen:

In connection with the death of Archimandrite Kirill (Pavlov) on February 23, the funeral and burial of the elder took place. The clergy, monastic and laity, glazed in Lavra. There were no sad, probably, it should be. A man ending his earthly wanders finally returns home.

We were going to sit on the train, which came out from the Yaroslavl station at 6:50.

On the road from the main building of Moscow State University to the metro my satellite, Sergey, offered to start reading the rule, to which I replied: "Wear in the train." The wave of bewilderment flowed into the phrase: "In the train it is necessary to sleep, and not the rule read!"

We started in turn on memory, spying in prayers, read the morning rule. Already coming to the subway, Sergey noticed: "Something we go slowly."

Accelerated.

I got to the Yaroslavl station - at the box office. We go to the platform - there is an electric train; We are joyful that they managed to sit on her. After that, they immediately moved.

As a result, at 6:50, we still were late, and this went 5 minutes later, but not quite there. I had to quickly think where to go out to have time to pass the next train to Sergiev Posad.

In the Lavra, at the end of the liturgy, we met costa, Sasha, Vlad and Any. The laity in the temple on the funeral was not allowed, so all the time had to stand on the street. Thanks to the audit transmission, it was heard on the entire laurel, which happened inside the temple. It was very cold, and we periodically walked to warm up, especially me. Sasha was the most resistant out of us, but it was similar to the French soldier of the war of 1812 from the film "War and Peace": a hat, two hoods and two scarfs.

On the way back, Sergey offered to go to the shop, where he took pies, cookies and 3 liters of Morse, half of all he immediately ate - "I didn't come to the laurel in vain." You still managed to dissuade him to buy a lean marmalade bears.

It happens that everything turns out not entirely as you plan, expect. And everything is not quite as it seems. Sometimes it is worth approaching the perception of reality by non-standard way: every moment of life you can do the affairs of faith, and sometimes a "small" case in a reasonable or fairly funny situation is more than the "big" business. Prayer, privacy, collens - it is difficult when there is another person, "marmalade bear" and pies. We do not know what circumstances will the Lord put us. And therefore it is not easy to figure out that I should do Christ now.

Vladislav Konstantinov:

The news of the spirituality of the spiritual father of the Trinity-Sergiye Lavra Archimandrite Kirill (Pavlova) flashed among the participants of the youth traffic "Andreevtsy". The decision on our pilgrimage in the laurel was not prepared in advance, and we, several guys from youth movement, went although together, but not as part of Andreevtsev.

On that day, it was snow, because of which the outlines of the Trinity-Sergiye Lavra were fuzzy. Pilgrims gathered quite a lot, in the Liturgy in the Assumption Cathedral were far from everyone who wanted: many were in the Lavra. It was cool, standing in the open air turned into a test. Pilgrims at times came to warm up in close church benches. We unexpectedly met their Andreevtsev's friends who came to the funeral of Archimandrite Cyril separately from us.

For the Altar of the Church of the Holy Spirit, the grave was burned; In her, another empty, elited by a coniferous sweetheart, will soon be lowered by the coffin of Archimandrite Kirill.

Death, this is an unfamiliar and frightening event, crowning our earthly life and anticipating eternity, expects all the believers and unbelievers, righteous and many sinners. She is inevitable, inevitable, and none of the people are dominated to push her hour. The outcome of the earth's life is the body of a person comes with the Earth. What will remain after it?

The Chin of Equipment in the Assumption Cathedral was committed to His Holiness Patriarch Kirill, who uttered the Word about the feat of the spiritual ministry of Archimandrite Kirill for thousands of people and about the special last years of his life - the years of renunciance from the world, which at the same time were years of continuing to ministry.

On the territory of the Lavra, near the prepared grave, there are tombstones of other graves; Next to them, right on the snow under the sky, the lamps are burning - a symbol of absent and prayer. Someone's hand supports fire in them - it means there is a soul on Earth, in which it will also be warm about the departed prayer.

Going on your affairs, the monk stops at the grave to stand up with a cross and worship - probably, reflecting on the limb of earthly life, rejoicing about the life of his departed brothers, referring to the prayer to God for the Experience to spend and their lives worthy of the highest goal. Probably, so applies to live Orthodox - to express priorities, having the memory of death.

Anna Stepanova:

It was my first trip to Lavra. It was a little exciting and in some extent responsibly: first, we are going to visit the reverend, secondly, we defeat the Great Older, who also hollowed by Russia for so many years that helped everyone who turned to him who gave advice and instructions. And although I got acquainted with the amazing life and ministry of archimandrite Kirill (Pavlov) only partially, but it turned out to be enough to, thank God, a desire to at least spend the father of Kirill and pray for his rest, and even ask him not to leave his prayers to Lord about our country and about us, sinful. After all, having won the gift of witness and wisdom to his righteous life, he helped so many people! And letters, and at a personal meeting, and through the spiritual ocker of the three patriarchs, and the monks of the whole Lavra! Therefore, in principle, you realize that people who came to say goodbye and pray for those who were called the All-Russian confessor, there will be a lot, but when you see everyone's eyes everyone, then they are still surprised. Surprising and the number of people, and the sea of \u200b\u200bflowers, and sincerely desire, with which the memory comes - and only then the present understanding comes to how the great elder was!

Konstantin Kokov:

We arrived in Sergiev Posad to 8 o'clock in the morning. The liturgy in the Assumption Cathedral of the Lavra committed Metropolitan Kiev and All Ukraine onufry. Fortunately, even though we were a little late for the beginning of the liturgy, we arrived quite early in order to get inside the temple. During the liturgy, people from the rear rows were constantly moved forward, and I could not understand what was happening there in the front of the temple. It turned out that these people were applied to the relics about. Kirill. (The body of any deceased believer in the Orthodox tradition is allowed to call the relics.) True, not all of our company managed to do this - played a crowded role and some ignorance about what happened.

After the liturgy, all those present were asked to enter the street, because monastic and clergy people prayed in the temple, which were very many. Fortunately, after the funeral, it was announced that the elder would not bear from the temple for the burial until everyone would say goodbye. Therefore, everyone who wanted had the opportunity to say goodbye to the older at his coffin.

I, of course, was not familiar with about. Cyril. Not very interested in his personality, although he knew that it was a man of holy life, the great old man. However, when I was in the Assumption Cathedral, I was absolutely sure - we escort in the last path of the Holy Man. It was very clear that the father of Kirill goes his soul to people who at that moment were depicted right in front of us on the wonderful Iconostasa of the Assumption Cathedral, that is, to the saints. This inner experience was confirmed by the external circumstance - Laurea was full of people who, among other things, suffered cramped all day, hunger, lazy cold for love for the older Kirill.

One of the most revered elders of Russia of Russia, the confessor of the Trinity-Sergiye Lavra, the spiritual father of three Russian patriarchs was died. The employee of the Department of External Church Relations of the Russian Orthodox Church of the Nuns of Theodore (Lapkovskaya) was reported about his death.

Archimandrite Kirill (in the world Ivan Dmitrievich Pavlov) was born on September 8, 1919 in the village of Makovskiy Vyselki in a devout peasant family. From the age of 12, he lived at the unbeliever brother, under the influence of the medium he moved away from religion. After graduation, the technical school worked as a technologist at the metallurgical plant. Already after the war, adopting monastic stop, every year about. Kirill at the Easter period attended the native village and the village of Macovo 12 km from Mikhailov, where his parents, brother and sisters were buried. In the village helped restore the bell tower and the temple, which was not closed throughout the Soviet history.

He was called into the Red Army, served in the Far East. A participant in the Great Patriotic War in the rank of lieutenant, participated in the defense of Stalingrad (commanded the platoon), in battles near Lake Balaton in Hungary, finished the war in Austria. Demobilized in 1946.

During the war, Ivan Pavlov turned to faith. He recalled that, carrying the guard service in the destroyed Stalingrad in April 1943, found the gospel among the ruins of the house.

"He began to read it and felt something native, cute for the soul. It was the Gospel. I found such a treasure for myself, such a consolation! .. I gathered all the leaves together - the book was broken, and there was a gospel with me all the time. Before that, such an embarrassment was: why is the war? Why fight? There was a lot of incomprehensible, because solid atheism was in the country, a lie, the truth would not know ... I walked with the Gospel and was not afraid. Never. It was inspiration! Just the Lord was with me near, and I was not afraid of anything "(Archimandrite Cyril).

Immediately after the army he entered the seminary: "In 1946, I demobilized me from Hungary. I came to Moscow, I ask in the Elohov Cathedral: Do we have any spiritual institution? "There is," they say, the spiritual seminary opened in the Novodevichy Monastery. " I went there right in military uniforms. I remember the Vice-Rector Father Sergius Savinsky welcomed me and gave a test program. " At the end of the Moscow spiritual seminary, he entered the Moscow spiritual academy, which he graduated in 1954.

On August 25, 1954, he was tonsured in a monk in the Trinity-Sergius Lavra. Initially, it was a pioneer. In 1970 he became a treasurer, and since 1965 - the confessor of the monastic brethren. Was erected in San Archimandrite. According to the testimony of contemporaries, he was confessed by the Patriarchas of Alexy I and Pimen.

Appointed by the confessor of Patriarch Alexy II, in connection with this he moved to Peredelkino (where there is a patriarchal residence), continuing to bother the laurels spiritually. He was awarded the church orders of St. Sergius of the Radonezh and Holy Prince Vladimir. The author of numerous sermons and teachings. Mentor of young monks who took the lead in the laurel. I wrote a lot in the epistolalar genre, annually Archimandrite Kirill sent bishops, priests, laity, spiritual chadam and even unfamiliar people up to 5,000 letters with congratulations, instructions and edifications.

In the mid-2000s, he suffered a stroke that deprived the elder the opportunity to move and communicate with the outside world.

For more than 12 years, Archimandrite Kirill (Pavlov) was in physical dishes, carrying a prayer and martyrdom. And so, the Lord took him to his heavenly monastery. Everlasting memory! God, Lord, the servant of your new-promoted archimandrite Kirill!

RU.

The coffin with the body of the new-promoted father Kirill was moved on February 21, 2017 from Peredelkino in Trinity-Sergiev Lavra, in the walls of which the old man lasted for many years. The holy gates of the monastery of the funeral motorcade met the governor of Trinity-Sergiye Lavra Archbishop Sergiev-Posogunnut with Monastic Brother's Monastery.

Accompanied by the choir, the Mourning procession proceeded to the Assumption Cathedral of the monastery, where he put the body of Kirill's father before the funeral. Then the Vladyka Feoganut in serving the Bishop of Rossoshansky and Ostrogogsky Andrei and Lavra Briat in the Sacred Saana made a memorial at the newly promoted father Kirill.

Behind the memorial, the igumens and the ignition of the monasteries of the Russian Orthodox Church, the parishioners and guests of the monastery.

Before starting the rank of funeral, the Holy Patriarch Kirill said a word dedicated to the memory of Kirill's father:

"Your Bliss! Dear lords, fathers, brethren, Mother of ignition, brothers and sisters!

We betrayed the coffin of Kirill's father (Pavlov), the confessor of the Trinity-Sergiye Lavra, the confessor of the late His Holiness Patriarch Alexy II, the confessor of many and many bishops of the Russian Church, the clergy and a huge number of Orthodox believers who flocked in Trinity-Sergiev Lavra - and worship the recent rectification Sergius, and ask the spiritual advice from the father of Kirill. He carried the great ministry of the confessor for thousands of thousands of people, and this ministry required a special feat. Not only because listening to human problems is always not easy, but also because he did not just listen to these problems. He penetrated deep into the spiritual state of man. At the time of confession, he seemed to identify himself with those who came to him for advice. This, of course, required the depletion, the huge consumption of the internal forces and forces of physical. But the father of Kirill never Ropatal and humility carried his ministry, not only confessing people, but also responding to many and many letters.

For the first time I met with Father Cyril in the distant already in 1966. Then he had no fame of the All-Russian elder and the confessor, he was relatively young, strong, was moving. And when I asked my spiritual leader, the conformable Lord of Metropolitan Nicodemia, to whom from the brethth I was going to confess, he calmly said: "Go to the Father Kirill." It was a truly special ministry of the elder Kirill to all our pious people, and especially those who needed his spiritual council.

Giving advice is always very risky. Sometimes people come to the confessor and ask about the fact that a person cannot know in his limitity. Some conformists take on a huge risk, giving advice from their own understanding. Father Kirill was a confessor who gave advice not from understanding, but from his spiritual experience. There were cases when he did not give any advice at all. But people stretched to him, because he felt his spiritual power, because spiritualism is not only a feat of sober spiritual reflection, but also a prayer feat. Father Cyril Many priests revealed an example of such a spirituality - genuine spiritual leadership of those who are ready to take this driving from the side of the confessor.

Little Lord, keeping the physical life of Kirill's father, brought him out of communication with the world. It was some special shutter. He left this world, remaining a physically alive man. Many did not understand why this happened to the old man. But it was also a certain God. He was needed even when he could no longer speak with people, and many came to the father of Kirill, to just stand up from his bed, touch his hand. He continued to serve people with his silence, with his illness, his ability to be from this world, and at the 98th year of life, the Lord hatching him to himself.

It is happily seeing today many people in the Trinity-Sergius Lavra. Your presence, expensive lords, fathers, brothers and sisters, is the most striking evidence that the Father Cyrill did something for each of you. Let us give him today our duty. Pray for the rest of his soul, so that the Lord accepted him into his heavenly kingdom and created an eternal prayer memory of him in our hearts. Amen".

The hierarchs and the clergy of the Russian Orthodox Church prayed in the Cathedral, the Olliki Trinity-Sergiye Lavra, teachers and students of the Moscow Spiritual Academy, numerous believers. Assumption Cathedral did not fit all those who came to say goodbye to Kirill, many believers prayed on the square in front of the cathedral.
