When the Russians in the Middle Ages left their paganism and embraced Christ
Spirituality
St. Francis Xavier, March, 1549: “You will sometimes meet with men… who doubt of the power and efficacy of the holy sacraments, and especially as to the Presence of the Body of Christ in the Eucharist. This comes from... their continual intercourse with pagans, Mahometans, and heretics, or from the bad example given them by some Christians… and even by some of our own priestly order... [for] they imagine that it is in vain that we teach that Jesus Christ is present in the holy sacrifice of the Mass, for that if He were there present, He would never suffer such impure hands to touch Him with impunity.”
Doctrine
“It was during the ninth, tenth, and eleventh centuries that one of the greatest transformations in the history of the western world took place: the Danes, Swedes, Norwegians, Poles, Moravians, Bohemians, Hungarians, Serbs, Bulgarians, and Russians put from them their paganism with its horrid superstition and cruelty, and bowed their necks under the yoke of Christ.” (Laux, Church History, p. 275)
