Now even seamen can attend church, thanks to the Saint Vladimir Chapel Boat. This floating church was created by the Russian Orthodox Church to spread the word of God along the Volga River.
The Saint Vladimir Chapel Boat will be visiting areas decimated by natural disaster in an attempt to provide comfort and hope to victims. The church is completely self-propelled and features an on-board priest as well as several holy artifacts and relics from the Russian Orthodox Church.
