A new Orthodox church will appear in the Philippines, the website of the Russian Orthodox Church reports. The construction has begun on the island of Mindanao, on the territory of the village of Kinabalan.

In the Philippine-Vietnamese diocese, they said that the building where services are currently being held is in disrepair. Therefore, it was decided to start building a new temple. The ceremony of consecration of the foundation stone was held a year ago by Metropolitan Pavel of Manila and Hanoi.

The work began immediately, but then there was a break in them due to the unfavorable epidemiological situation. Construction has now resumed. The parishioners have already leveled the site where the work has begun.
