India’s first Orthodox church will be built in the capital New Delhi in 2013, Gennady Moroz, priest of the recently registered New Deli-based parish, said on Monday.
According to him, parishioners are currently picking a plot of land for the would-be church, in a move that Moroz said will hopefully be endorsed by Indian authorities.
The completion of the construction is to coincide with the festivities dedicated to the 1025th anniversary of the Baptism of Russia.
