Photo Gallery of St. Raphael - in action

The below photos are from Orthodox America: 1794-1976. Captions will be added to as I have a chance to read up more on these events.

Blessing the grounds for St. Tikhon Monastery

 

St. Raphael, as a bishop, and the faithful, celebrating the blessing of the grounds for St. Tikhon of Zadonsk Monastery.

 Between the two center pillars, from left to right, St. Raphael of Brooklyn, St. Tikhon of North America, and Bishop Innokenty, at the dedication of the monastery. Exactly ninety-four years later, less a day, St. Raphael was glorified on this same property.

May 30, 1906.
