Cast bronze bell, Holy Trinity Chapel, Ft. Ross.

99th annual Western American Diocese, ROCOR traditional pilgrimage to Ft. Ross on Memorial Day, May 28, 2024, with Archbishop Kyrilll and priest and deacons of the Russian Orthodox Church and faithful.

The Holy Trinity/Saint Nicholas Chapel at Fort Ross is the first Russian Orthodox Church in the contiguous United States. Fort Ross is holy land – where two saints have labored: St Innocent of Alaska/Moscow and the Holy Martyr Peter the Aleut. Two other saints, St Tikhon and St John of Shanghai, have prayed here and sanctified the lands, the chapel, and the cemetery.

Following the liturgy was a procession to the cemetery with a "Litya for the Departed."
