Information on Bishop Innocent
Summary prepared by V. Kryssova
2/1994
MS4 Box2 Folder 15
Manuscript n1
Date 1860. (This is approximate dated, because the manuscript does not have date and author's name) .
In 1827 the Russian church sent a new Missionary: Joann Veniaminov with family. He had two sons and four daughters. He served in Unalaska for 10. At first, he lived in a dug-house with his family and ate a bad food, sometimes he starved.
He translated religious books into the local languages and built churches and schools. In these schools 600 Aleut children studied.
After 10 years Joann Veniaminov arrived in Sitka and spent 5 years there serving in the Archangelskaya Church. He collected information about Aleuts and Native people and studied languages of people called "Kolashe".
Joann Veniaminov had a big dream to open a new Mission. He departed to the Russian Sacred Synod, a church office in Moscow. The Russian Sacred Synod let him open a New Mission.
In 1842, Joann's wife died.
Eventually, he was named Bishop Innocent, and later still, Metropolitan of Moscow, then the highest rank in the Russian Orthodox Church.
Joann Veniaminov was the newly named Bishop of Alaska, Kamchatka and Aleuts.
On August 10th 1842, Bishop Innocent left to go to America.
He had big intentions: He wanted to make Native Alaskan's faith full to the Russian
Orthodox Church.

Report/covering/letter/ Veniaminov, dated 14, April 1835, Sitka, to
Meletii, Archbishop of Irkutsk. In the report, V. States that in order to
effectively teach Christianity, he has composed in Aleut language a work
entitled Short Indication of the Road to the Kingdom of Heaven and that he,
V., intended to ask Bishop's permission to print this work.
However, as the Catechism which he submitted for printing was
printed with many errors, due to the proofreader's ignorance of the Aleut
language, as the printing of his, V's, translation of the gospels has been
stopped - and he was instructed by the Synod to use the gospels in manuscript,
he is keeping the Aleut version, using it too in manuscript, and submits the
translation into Russian for Archbishop's perusal for correction and comment.
On the document (first page, top) is Archbishop's notation. "The Dean of
the seminary is to read the composition and report to me"
