It is with profound grief and sadness that Congress of Russian Americans has learned that the
First Hierarch Metropolitan Hilarion reposed in the Lord on May 16, 2022 after a prolonged illness.
Metropolitan Hilarion was a strong supporter and empathizer of CRA and its goals for many years
and this is a great loss to our Orthodox church, our community and our organization.
May he rest in peace! Memory Eternal!
