Zosima (Sokur). (№ 452455)

Kiev-Pechersk Lavra will fall. All the grace of the Kiev-Pechersk Lavra will go to Optina Pustyn. I won't live to see it, but you'll see.

Quote Explanation: Thirty years ago, in a private conversation with Father Hieroschemamonk Seraphim (Hieroshimonk Seraphim (Timofeev) from Optina Hermitage), Elder Zosima predicted something that seemed incredible - the fall of the Kiev-Pechersk Lavra.
