Ivan Mikhailovich Voronov, the name of Archimandrite Alipiy before his tonsure, fought for four years on the fronts of the Great Patriotic War and traveled from Moscow to Berlin. And then for thirteen more years he kept the defense of the Pskov-Pechersk monastery, protecting it from closure.
Soon after the Great Patriotic War, thousands of cathedrals and churches were blown up, closed, converted into warehouses, and most of the higher ecclesiastical educational institutions were abolished. Almost all monasteries were dispersed. Many priests were imprisoned. On the territory of Russia, only two monasteries remained active - the Trinity-Sergius Lavra, forced by the authorities to preserve it for display to foreigners, and the Pskov-Pechersk Monastery. Here the Great Vicar, Archimandrite Alipiy, stood up against the mighty force of the atheistic state. And, most beautifully, he won! In this book you will read a brief biography of this amazing man.
