Over the nearly six years since Archimandrite Zacchaeus has been serving at St. Catherine Church, the parish and its neighbors have had a very fruitful working relationship which allowed safety measures for the Israeli Embassy to be put into place and also ensure the security of church, which is the Dean’s first concern.
During the course of the meeting, Mr. Grinboim, together with Father Zacchaeus and Mr. Alikov discussed various security measures that can be put into place in the future that would further the feeling of safety on the part of the parishioners and Embassy staff and employees.
