What Бог does

Pravoslavie.Ru is a Russian Orthodox Christian web portal operated by the Sretensky Stauropegial Male Monastery of the Russian Orthodox Church (Moscow Patriarchate). Founded in 1999 and headquartered at the monastery premises on Bolshaya Lubyanka, 19 in Moscow, the portal serves Russian-speaking Orthodox Christians globally, delivering news, theological articles, sermons, interviews, multimedia content, and liturgical resources. Its primary audience is devotional laypeople and clergy seeking religious education, spiritual guidance, and access to authoritative Russian Orthodox Church content.

The platform's core products include the main Pravoslavie.Ru portal, the Orthodox Church Calendar (days.pravoslavie.ru) with daily saint commemorations, fasting guidelines, and liturgical readings, an online prayer book (ms.pravoslavie.ru), and an embeddable "Icon of the Day" JavaScript widget for third-party sites. Underlying technology is a web-based content management system with RSS feed syndication, multimedia delivery, and content categorization across news, articles, interviews, audio, video, and press monitoring. The portal operates in Russian, Greek, Serbian, and English, with affiliated projects including the Volny Strannik publishing house and the Sretensky Monastery Pilgrimage Center.

Pravoslavie.Ru is a registered religious nonprofit under the Russian Orthodox Church with no commercial products or paid subscription services. Revenue derives from voluntary donations, book sales through the monastery's Sretenie shop, and affiliated publishing operations. With approximately 10 employees, the operation is lean and content-driven. Distribution spans VK, Odnoklassniki, Telegram, YouTube, twice-weekly email newsletters, RSS feeds, and embeddable calendar widgets. The organization maintains no publicly disclosed financial metrics and has no external investors, private equity, or venture capital involvement.

Direct peers

• Orthochristian.com: English-language Orthodox Christian news portal operated as the international/English edition of the Pravoslavie.Ru ecosystem—the data explicitly links orthochristian.com as Pravoslavie.Ru's English version, making it the closest functional peer delivering the same content type in a different language.
• Radonezh.ru (Радонеж): Russian Orthodox Christian TV/radio channel with a digital portal that broadcasts services, theological discussions, and news for the Russian Orthodox community; comparable broadcasting + content-publication model to Pravoslavie.Ru's multimedia operations.
• Pravmir.ru (Правмир): Russian Orthodox Christian news, spirituality, and family-values portal covering church life, theology, family, and social issues; targets the same Russian-speaking Orthodox lay audience with overlapping editorial categories and a similar daily-publication cadence.
• Bogoslov.ru (Богослов.ру): Russian Orthodox theological and educational portal publishing academic theology, patristic texts, and church-history materials; overlaps with Pravoslavie.Ru's theology, history, and commentary sections for the same educated Orthodox Russian-speaking readership.
• Sedmitsa.ru (Седмица): Russian Orthodox Christian news portal aggregating church, parish, and monastic news from across the Russian Orthodox world; directly comparable news-publishing focus serving the same Russian-speaking Orthodox audience.
• Patriarchia.ru: Official website of the Russian Orthodox Church Patriarchate; Pravoslavie.Ru has a formal content-sharing partnership with this site (per partnership data), producing overlapping news, synod journals, and Patriarch communications for the same Russian-speaking Orthodox audience.
• Azbyka.ru (Азбука веры): Large Russian Orthodox Christian digital library and portal combining prayer texts, theological reference works, saints' lives, and daily calendar features—directly comparable to Pravoslavie.Ru's combination of content, liturgical resources, and reference library.
• Foma.ru (Фома): Russian Orthodox Christian magazine and web portal publishing articles on faith, culture, history, and modern life for lay Orthodox readers; directly competes with Pravoslavie.Ru for the same Russian-speaking faithful audience using a similar long-form content + features model.

Broad incumbents

• EWTN (Eternal Word Television Network): Global Catholic broadcasting and digital content network operating TV, radio, and web media at much greater scale; serves as the broader-incumbent parallel to Orthodox-focused digital media like Pravoslavie.Ru, though specializing in Catholic rather than Orthodox content.

Regional players

• Greek Orthodox Archdiocese of America (goarch.org): Official digital and media arm of the Greek Orthodox Archdiocese of America serving Orthodox faithful in North America; comparable Orthodox Christian content portal but focused primarily on Greek-language and Greek-jurisdiction Orthodox communities rather than the Russian-speaking audience Pravoslavie.Ru serves.
