becomes interesting, at least initially, as it explains how we have arrived at the present. We find the recent past more compelling because we can more easily see how it explains our present situation, whereas events that occurred several centuries ago often seem remote and disconnected from our lives today. For example, the story behind the building of the Russian Church of the Nativity of the Mother of God at Harvard Road in Chiswick in West London has many fascinating and inspiring elements, not least of which is its connection with the living tradition of the ancient Pskov style of church architecture. This in turn raises questions about why the church was built in Chiswick, where the parish was located previously, and why it had to move. From there we can go further back to explore whether the church was established by refugees after the Russian Revolution of 1917, and we find that by then it had already existed for some two hundred years, founded by Greeks at the initiative of the Russian Emperor, Peter the Great. Nevertheless, due to constraints of grammar and literary convention, it will be more practical to follow the normal approach and begin at the beginning, that is, 1713. This text began its life on April 26, 1987. The following year, 1988, would mark the Millennium of Russian Christianity, being the thousandth anniversary of the baptism of St Vladimir and the people of Kiev. As it was uncertain what celebrations, if any, would be allowed in the Soviet Union, the Russian Orthodox Church Abroad felt a particular responsibility to mark this event in a fitting fashion. In April 1987, then Bishop Mark, recently appointed to lead the parishes of the Russian Orthodox Church Abroad in Great Britain, held a meeting with some parishioners to discuss how best to honour this millennium. At that meeting I agreed to do some research on the history of the Russian Orthodox Church in London, with a view to preparing a brief xiii HTP-BIRCHALL-12-1201-FM.indd 13 8/19/2014 3:10:44 PM xiv Introduction account that the bishop could print at his monastery in Germany, and that would be ready in time for the celebrations the following year. I circulated an appeal for information. In reply I received many suggestions of who to ask, but had trouble gaining concrete information; each person referred me to someone else or suggested I should have asked someone who had recently died. Then I was told that all the old parish records were lodged in the Public Record Office (now the National Archives), at that time located in Chancery Lane in London. This seemed to me rather improbable, but, as I was working near Chancery Lane at the time, I thought I might as well see if there was any substance in this idea. To my astonishment, I found an entire section of the archives categorized as “Non parochial Registers,” which contained numerous files described as “Archives of the Russian Orthodox Church in London,” covering the period from 1713 to 1926. Some of the earlier materials were in Greek and others were in English, but the vast majority were in Russian. In many cases, the files kept in London contained rough, handwritten drafts in spidery writing, using pre-Revolutionary Russian spelling, of reports that had evidently been transcribed into a fair copy before being sent on to St Petersburg. Archival materials speak to the reader on various levels. First, there is the specific information contained in the document, which may be difficult to interpret without knowing its exact purpose and the context in which it was written. But second, there is also the unwritten content—the tone of the document and the presumptions that lie behind it. Amid the bureaucratic reports there is some very valuable material, such as a letter from Metropolitan Philaret of Moscow about Anglican beliefs, and the reports of Father Eugene Popoff about his visits to Russian soldiers held in prisoner of war camps in England during the Crimean War. The most vivid and fascinating material was the minutes of the meetings held in 1919 as the Embassy church was reorganized as a parish in accordance with the directives of the Russian Church Council held in 1917–1918 (see Chapter 7). Locating this archive was the breakthrough that convinced me that research into the history of the parish could produce something interesting and substantive. This material, however, did not extend beyond 1926. Gradually, additional information came to light about more recent times. At first it formed an incomplete patchwork, but with time a more complete picture began to emerge as links between different periods were filled in. It soon became apparent that completing this project in time for the millennium celebrations would not be a realistic objective. A four-page brochure was printed and distributed at the special church service held in July 1988 and HTP-BIRCHALL-12-1201-FM.indd 14 8/19/2014 3:10:44 PM Introduction xv given to guests at the banquet that followed. This provided a brief overview of the history of the parish with promises of a more complete study becoming available in the near future. The 1988 pamphlet did not, of course, hint at how long it would take for the book to be completed. The lack of information at the early stages was replaced by an overwhelming volume of material of all kinds—documents from the past, lovingly preserved cuttings from old newspapers in various languages, accounts written in the past, and newer accounts written in response to my appeal for information—all of which would help to preserve the memory of people who would otherwise be forgotten. However, to sort all this and incorporate it into the already partially drafted text became a daunting task. For this and various other reasons, work ground to a halt in the early 1990s. After the fall of Soviet Communism, from time to time I received enquiries from Russia about specific individuals who had spent time in London. Then in 2009, two factors combined to help push this work to a conclusion. First, there were celebrations of the twentieth anniversary of the fall of the Berlin Wall—a vivid reminder of the passage of time since work on this history had begun. Second, I renewed my acquaintance with an old friend, Nicolas Mabin, who had recently retired from a professional career in the City of London. He agreed to help me shape the manuscript into passable condition, proofreading and preparing it in a form suitable for submission to a publisher. At this point, some of the text was in the form of a typed manuscript, some had been typed on a computer using an old Word Perfect programme, and some took the form of incomplete handwritten drafts. With the passage of time, I had also added two final chapters dealing mainly with the building of the new church in Chiswick. The delay has allowed me to bring the account to a more satisfactory conclusion. In 1988 the parish faced an uncertain future, as it was on the verge of having to leave its church premises because the lease had expired. By 2009, however, the new church was substantially complete pending finishing touches and consecration. A Microcosm of Russian Church History in the Emigration I persevered with this history in part because I began to realize that the material that had come into my hands was more than just a family history. As I wrote in the 1988 millennium brochure, The research into past history became increasingly fascinating, as the materials studied gave access to a series of “lost worlds”—in particular the church of the Imperial Russian Embassy in the 19th century and the HTP-BIRCHALL-12-1201-FM.indd 15 8/19/2014 3:10:44 PM xvi Introduction Russian émigré community between the wars. Yet these are not really “lost worlds,” because the Orthodox Church sees herself as the unity of all present and past generations of Orthodox Christians, who are bound together by bonds of love and prayer, while the unchanging nature of Orthodoxy gives a permanent value to the examples and teachings of past generations. The Russian Orthodox community in England, especially after the Revolution, was part of a larger worldwide emigration and experienced many of the same joys and sorrows, as well as the same achievements in establishing their communities and church life in a new land. Many Russian churches in different parts of the world had their beginning in pre-Revolutionary times and were connected with embassies, consulates, or other Russian institutions abroad. However, focusing on one specific community, while at the same time placing local events in their wider historical context, enables us to witness these developments in a more intimate and real fashion than would be provided by a broader overview. The strength and weakness of history is that by the time it is written we know what happened and how it ended. But those who lived through these same events often were shaken and swept off their feet by happenings they did not understand, with no idea of where they would be tomorrow or when, if ever, they would be able to return home. Looking closely into the life of one parish also allows us to share more intimately in experiences that were common to most émigré parishes all over the world. At the same time, the history of the London parish has a number of interesting and unique features of its own. Among its leading clergymen were Archbishop Nikodem, a former White Army general who later became a monk and then a bishop; Father Michael Polsky, who slipped away from custody in the 1920s and wandered the length and breadth of Soviet Russia before escaping and becoming a warm hearted and much-loved émigré pastor; Father Eugene Popoff, who was not only a caring pastor of Embassy officials but also worked extensively with Anglicans and converts to Orthodoxy; Father James Smirnove, who did double service as a diplomat; and Father Eugene Smirnoff, who presided over the transition period after the Revolution, including the transformation of the chapel in Welbeck Street into a parish of the Russian Orthodox Church Abroad. Thus the book covers three distinct periods: (1) The period from 1713 to 1917, when the London church was connected with the diplomatic mission of Imperial Russia; (2) the period from 1917 to 1991, when it was a church of refugees from communist Russia and their descendants; and (3) the period since then, when it has become a church primarily of people who have come HTP-BIRCHALL-12-1201-FM.indd 16 8/19/2014 3:10:44 PM Introduction xvii to England voluntarily, principally from the former Soviet Union and Eastern Europe. While the circumstances of the church in London were very different after the Russian Revolution, we note a distinct continuity among people who had served the Embassy church for decades under the Imperial regime and continued to do so after the Revolution. This is partly because the Embassy church was never located in an embassy building (which the Soviet regime would have taken over and closed down, as happened in Germany) but had a distinct independent origin and always served the needs of people other than just the embassy staff. After the Second World War, parishes started opening in provincial centres as well as London, which became the centre of a deanery and then a diocese of the Russian Orthodox Church Abroad. At various times there were parishes in Manchester, Bradford, Leeds, Nottingham, Dublin, and Walsingham. More recently parishes have opened in Felixtowe, Colchester, Mettingham (Suffolk), Wallasey (near Liverpool), and Stradbally (in Ireland). These parishes are mentioned as they affect the life of the London parish and its clergy, but we cannot cover the life of each of them in detail. The chapters are of uneven length and differing content. This reflects both the kind of material that was available and also the differing functions of the church over these periods. During the periods when the church served refugees, prayers were continually offered for the “suffering land of Russia” and individually for peoples’ relatives who died during periods of bloodshed or disappeared without a trace. To some extent, refugees cannot help but live in the past, and I have devoted considerable space to what could be called the “backstory”—the experiences of refugees before they arrived in England. Chapter 7 includes material about the Russian Revolution and Civil War, including the various routes by which exiles reached London. Chapter 11 includes extensive extracts from Father Michael Polsky’s own accounts of his experiences in Russia before he escaped over the frontier into Persia. Chapter 12 includes descriptions of displaced persons in Germany after the Second World War and their attempts to escape repatriation to the Soviet Union with the help of clergymen of the Russian Orthodox Church Abroad who later served in England. Chapter 15 draws on the published and unpublished memoirs of Galina von Meck, daughter of a pre-Revolutionary railway magnate who settled in London after the Second World War. The copy of Father Michael Polsky’s book Положение Церкви в Советской России [The situation of the Church in Soviet Russia], from which I took the extracts presented in Chapter 11, was given to me in 1970 by Maximilian Albrecht, a parishioner who had received the autographed HTP-BIRCHALL-12-1201-FM.indd 17 8/19/2014 3:10:44 PM xviii Introduction copy from the author himself. Because it was an old and worn-looking book, and my Russian was not very good at the time, I did not pay much attention to it and soon forgot about it. However, when working on the initial draft of this chapter in 1988, I went up into the loft of the house in Teddington where I was then living, to look through some boxes of old papers to see if I had anything relevant. I found the old book inscribed to Maximilian Albrecht and took it downstairs. I found it was written with such a vivid style that I could not put it down and stayed up half the night reading it. This was the first book Father Michael wrote after leaving Russia in 1931. All his opinions were supported by direct personal experiences and meetings with leading ecclesiastical figures, some of them during his time confined in the Solovetsky prison camp, so I had no hesitation including extensive extracts from this first-class historical material. After returning to Canada in 1991, I mentioned this to Metropolitan Vitaly, then First Hierarch of the Russian Orthodox Church Abroad, who was also the Archbishop of Canada and had known Father Michael during his time in London and had an immense respect for him. I gave my copy of the book to the metropolitan, and he had it reprinted at his printing press in Montreal. Later, it was further reprinted in Russia. The original of the book disappeared during the reprinting process, but it was good to know that its contents could again be made known after spending so many years hidden in a box in Teddington. Inevitably, the results of historical research depend on the person who carries it out. Another person might not have climbed up into a dusty loft but might have discovered other information that I did not. In particular, some might think that this book overemphasizes the clergy by comparison with the laypeople who made up the parish. Another person with better contacts might have found out more than I have about the faithful families who made up the body of the church from one generation to the next, and indeed about other aspects of the life of the church in London which I have overlooked. While I hope readers will find this account interesting and edifying, I make no claim to completeness. Metropolitan Anthony Bloom For many people who have heard anything about the Russian Orthodox Church in London, the one name that they associate with it is that of Metropolitan Anthony (Bloom). Therefore, it may come as a surprise and disappointment that he is mentioned here only in passing. As more fully explained in Chapters 8, 12, and 14, the Russian Orthodox Church in London was affected by the divisions among Russian Orthodox believers after HTP-BIRCHALL-12-1201-FM.indd 18 8/19/2014 3:10:44 PM Introduction xix the Revolution that ultimately led to a schism in 1926. From that point forward, this history is concerned primarily with the Russian Orthodox Church Abroad, otherwise known as the Russian Orthodox Church Outside Russia or the Russian Orthodox Church in Exile. The other parish formed in 1926 belonged to the Patriarchate of Constantinople, and then, at the end of the Second World War, transferred allegiance to the Patriarchate of Moscow. Metropolitan Anthony, who had grown up as an émigré in France, was sent to London in 1950 to lead the parish under the jurisdiction of the Moscow Patriarchate, first as a priest and later as a bishop. He remained in this position until his death in 2003. In 2007, following the reconciliation between the Russian Orthodox Church Abroad and the Patriarchate of Moscow, the two London parishes entered into eucharistic communion, although each has retained its separate organizational structure. For periods after the Revolution and the 1926 schism, the focus of the present study is on the presence of the Russian Orthodox Church Abroad in London. After the reconciliation in 2007, I considered the possibility of adding some information about the history of the Patriarchal parish. However, in the end I decided this would be unduly time-consuming and even somewhat presumptuous. The Patriarchal parish at Ennismore Gardens has from time to time published articles dealing with its own history, but it would take extensive further research to write additional chapters to add to this book. Metropolitan Anthony himself was a well-known figure and much has been written about him already, both by Orthodox and non-Orthodox writers. To do justice to his many-facetted personality appears to have been somewhat of a challenge even to those who knew him well. In Chapter 17, I describe the process of unification between the Russian Orthodox Church Abroad and the Moscow Patriarchate, including meetings between clergy of the Russian Orthodox Church Abroad and Metropolitan Anthony toward the end of his life. His memory will be preserved by others in numerous articles and books already written. The focus of this book is on other edifying and fascinating personalities whose memory is already beginning, undeservedly, to fade. Research and Sources This book is based primarily on unpublished materials—papers held in the National Archives, personal interviews, and parish records—as well as church and émigré periodic publications. Other published sources have been consulted primarily for background information. In books on historical topics I observed a wide variety of different practices in citing sources. At one extreme, the author provides a footnote supporting virtually every statement HTP-BIRCHALL-12-1201-FM.indd 19 8/19/2014 3:10:44 PM xx Introduction made, while at the other, there are no footnotes at all but simply a “Select Bibliography” as a guide for further reading. I think that a text where every page is knee-deep in footnotes can be difficult to read, while a lack of information about sources can be perplexing and confusing. The present text consists of seventeen chapters, each representing a period—generally the incumbency of a particular clergyman as rector of the parish. Each chapter is further subdivided into sections, each dealing with a particular aspect or development of church life during that period. After the last chapter I have provided a list of sources for the entire book. For each section of each chapter I have indicated the main sources of the information presented in that section. For materials in the National Archives I have identified the exact file references, while for published sources I have given the normal citations of author, title, date, and place of publication. Appendixes of Supplementary Material Four appendixes contain material that I think is important but might otherwise interrupt the flow of the narrative. Rather than use the Library of Congress system for transliterating Russian names that indicates how the name was spelled in the original Russian alphabet, I chose to translate names in a way that better indicates how they are pronounced. Where possible, I used the English spelling people actually used for their own names. I have also provided a chart explaining ecclesiastical ranks both for married and monastic clergy.
