On June 13, 2023, Bishop Ivan Laptev of The Evangelical Lutheran Church of Ingria and Pastor Konstantin Subbotin, rector of the ELCIR Theological Institute, met with Auxiliary Bishop Nikolai Dubinin of the Mother of God Roman Catholic Diocese in Moscow, Msgr. Sergei Timashov, rector of Mary the Queen of the Apostles RC Seminary, and Aleksandr Haidukov.
They discussed the modern challenges of religious education, mapped ways of cooperation between the two seminaries, talked about plans for working together in mass media, and formulated ideas for the working program of the 4th Interconfessional Media Seminar which is regularly held at the Ingrian seminary and is an important dimension of interdenominational cooperation.
Special thanks to Bishop Dubinin for an engaging tour of the seminary and the church!
