On October, 2, concluding the archpastoral visit to the northern parishes, Archbishop Anthony of Krasnoyarsk and Yeniseisk and a missionary group of the diocesan clergy arrived at Chelyuskin Cape to erect the memorial cross. Chelyuskin Cape situated at the tip of the Taymyr Peninsula is the northernmost point of the Eurasian continent.

The ceremony of erecting the cross at the northernmost borders of Russia was led by His Eminence Archbishop Anthony, diocese's oeconomous archimandrite Nectary (Seleznyov), Taimyr church district's rural dean archpriest Mikhail Grenadyorov and other clergy.

Speaking on the event, the archbishop dwelt upon its church and patriotic significance: "The Cross at the Arctic Ocean shore has been erected to show everyone that this is our Orthodox state, even at the northernmost borders".

The same day Archbishop Anthony of the Krasnoyarsk diocese visited the frontier station where he blessed the frontiersmen drawing civil duty in extreme north conditions. Head of the regional frontier services department colonel Vladimir Chmykhailo presented anniversary medals to Archbishop Anthony and representatives of the diocese on occasion of the 90th anniversary of the Russian Frontier Troops.

Archbishop conducted the rite of aspersion with holy water of the burial places of the military pilots and sailors who laid down their lives during the exploration of the Far North. The diocese's head also took part in the solemn installation of memorial tablets on the monuments to the soldiers who died for the Fatherland.
