Complete Our Lady of the Pacific Church in Russia

Nachodkah is a port city – and one of the easternmost cities in all of Russia. Looking out towards the Pacific Ocean, it is almost 3,950 miles from Moscow. That is about the same distance as from Berlin to New York!

The town has a population of some 160,000, and the local Catholic parish of Our Lady of the Pacific was established in the early 1990s, following the collapse of the Soviet Union.
