Bishop John Addresses the crowd at the outdoor Divine Liturgy

Some more photos of the 2006 conference on Bokshay's "Prostopinije". The temperature was almost 100F that afternoon!

I would gather that in Uzhgorod many of the faithful kneel for most of the anaphora. I took the photo before the short video clip (available on youtube : Uzhgorod choir [youtube.com] ) was taken. While here in the USA we are debating translations, "new" music, and rubrics, it seems that in the old country people do still kneel during the Divine Liturgy.
