ACTIVITY OF ORTHODOX MISSIONARY SOCIETY IN URAL
The activity of Orthodox Missionary Society from 1869 till 1917 was the most outstanding page in the synodal period of the Russian Orthodox Church history. Historical literature gives very brief estimation of the Siberian and foreign Orthodox Missionary Societies missions results. However, the society missionary work in Ural has never been considered. In this article the author attempts to eliminate this gap in the Russian historiography on the basis of new documents.
