The holiday of the Baptism of Rus may become a day off in Sevastopol
3 Avgust 2020
On July 28, throughout Russia, a holiday was celebrated, which is both church and state at the same time - the Day of the Baptism of Rus. In the churches of Sevastopol, a city of federal significance, on the territory of which the holy Prince Vladimir, who later baptized Russia, converted to Christianity, the words of common prayer were also heard. Владимирский собор и памятник святому равноапостольному князю Киевскому в Севастополе Acting Governor of Sevastopol Mikhail Razvozhaev came up with an initiative to give July 28 a special status and declare this day a day off. “In Sevastopol, where Prince Vladimir was baptized, and Orthodox Russia began, we must celebrate this day in a special way. In fact, this is an opportunity to give our city a federal-level event, ”he said. The head of the city recalled that modern Sevastopol is the heir of ancient Korsun, the city from where the Grand Duke of Kiev Vladimir brought faith in the Lord Jesus Christ to the Russian lands. Therefore, the Day of the Baptism of Russia should be celebrated here on a larger scale, so that it 'goes beyond the boundaries of the temples into urban public spaces.' If this requires you to make the appropriate changes to legislation, said Mikhail Razvozhaev, will need to be introduced.
