Below is a video of the presentation given by Matushka Maria Potapova at a symposium on Saint John of Shanghai and San Francisco the Wonderworker, which was sponsored by the Saints Cyril and Athanasius Institute for Orthodox Studies held in San Francisco, CA, on June 30 & July 1, 2016.

Through this lecture Matushka Maria shares her childhood recollections of personal interactions with Saint John and her observations of him with others in France when he was the Ruling Bishop of the Western European Diocese during the 1950s. Through this video one can learn of Saint John’s character, his miracles and the impact he had on the faith of those around him, all through the eyes of a child.
