On Sunday in February 2025, Archpriest Igor Vyzhanov, rector of St. Nicholas Patriarchal Cathedral in New York, took part in the patronal feast of the Church of the New Martyrs and Confessors of Russia of the Russian Orthodox Church Outside of Russia, located in the Brooklyn area.
The festive Divine Liturgy was led by the First Hierarch of the Russian Church Abroad, Metropolitan Nicholas of Eastern America and New York.
Before the service, the church solemnly welcomed a revered relic of the Russian Diaspora – the myrrh-streaming Iveron Icon of the Mother of God, kept in the American state of Hawaii.
