Does anyone read Russian?

I picked this up today for not a lot of money. It's from the Orthodox church. I snagged it because it's totally in Russian and is dated 1906. There's also a ton of bullion decoration; I'm a sucker. It probably isn't worth a lot more than I paid, but try and find another one as the saying goes. It's colorful on one side with two saint's images, and a black mourning badge on the other. The words are the same on both sides, with the black and silver one being easier to read.

 

i would have snagged that in a heartbeat..........it's cool......specially now that Russia is controlling the us Gov't !

 

Somehow I doubt the Donald and the Orthodox Church have much to say to one another. (LOL)

 

I doubt it as well - he is MUCH to Protestant - attended Marble Collegiate regularly, and practically worshiped Peale..............

 

What....the same way you doubted he'd win !
you mean like that ?

 

The text reads: Russian Orthodox Brotherhood of St. Apostles Peter and Paul in Hartford, Connecticut
Founded on Feb.25, 1906
The last four letters is abbreviation but I do not know what it means.

 

Cool. I'd have figured it came from Chicago, but there is an Orthodox population here. The church I was thinking it could have come from was founded in 1914, so that's out. The mystery continues.
