The Diocese of Ryazan (Russian: Рязанская епархия) is a diocese (eparchy) of the Russian Orthodox Church, uniting parishes and monasteries in the western part of the Ryazan Oblast (within the city of Ryazan, as well as Zakharovsky, Mikhailovsky, Pronsky, Rybnovsky, Ryazansky, Spassky and Starozhilovsky districts). It is part of the Ryazan Metropolitanate.
Established September 26, 1198; according to other sources, in 1207.
History
It was separated from the Chernigov diocese. Initially, the department was located in Murom, but then it was moved to old Ryazan, and after its destruction and desolation - to Pereyaslavl Ryazan, that is, to modern Ryazan. The diocese began to be called Ryazan and Murom.
The importance of the Ryazan diocese in the church and social life of the Russian state grew. From January 26, 1589, the department received the status of an archbishopric, and from June 13, 1669, to 1723, a metropolitanate. Under the Ryazan metropolitans, the Assumption Cathedral was built in the Ryazan Kremlin.
When in 1764, under Catherine II, Murom was assigned to the Vladimir diocese, the diocese began to be called Ryazan and Shatsk. In turn, when in 1799 Shatsk was assigned to the Tambov diocese, and Zaraisk became part of the Ryazan diocese, the diocese was called Ryazan and Zaraisk.
After the October Revolution in 1917, widespread destruction of church life began. At the end of the 1930s, there was no ruling bishop in Ryazan, all monasteries and parochial schools were closed, services were held in a few churches, the rest were destroyed or closed by the authorities. Only after the Patriotic War of 1941-1945 did diocesan life begin to improve somewhat, and after 1988 - to fully revive. Under the conditions of Khrushchev's anti-religious campaign, the Ryazan diocese maintained high income - in 1962 it received 356,207 rubles of net income.[1] At the same time, the diocese contributed large sums to the Peace Fund - in 1962 125,000 rubles, in 1963 already 190,000 rubles.[2] The population of the Ryazan Oblast actively helped the churches. For example, in 1965, believers brought 1.5 tons of flour, 710 m2 of fabric and 890 towels and scarves to the temples.[2]
On October 5, 2011, the Kasimovskaya and Skopinskaya dioceses were separated from the Ryazan diocese. On October 6, 2011, the Ryazan Metropolis was formed within the Ryazan region, which includes the Kasimov, Ryazan and Skopin dioceses.[3]
