This book is about the participation of the Russian Orthodox Church priesthood in defending Leningrad during the blockade and in the territory north-west of Leningrad under German occupation. Religious life was on the rise in the years of the Great Patriotic War, and the Church, including all its streams and factions, played an active role in keeping Russian spirits up with charity and other patriotic activities. This book is based on archival materials from Russian and German archives.
