Kenai, Alaska: Russian Orthodox Influence
 he
Russian Orthodox religion arrived in Alaska in 1741, with
Vitus Bering. Fifty years later, in 1791, Russian traders
landed at Kenai. They were followed by a Russian Orthodox
monk four years later. This is the Holy Assumption of the
Virgin Mary Russian Orthodox Church in Old Town Kenai. |
