This month, the first 6,000 copies of the New Testament and Psalms were installed in one of the largest hotels in Moscow.

(Moscow, Russia)—The Christian Telegraph reports that Russia has joined with Christian tradition in putting Bibles in hotel rooms.

The move is supported by the government's Department of Tourism and Hospitality Management Department.

Dimitriy Pershin, the chairman of the Commission with the Diocesan Missionary Council of Moscow, said, "Actually, in every European hotel, guests can find Bibles in the rooms. The Gospel is a book that has become the foundation of European culture. It is an essential feature of the respectful and hospitable attitude towards the guests, as well as an indicator of the cultural level of the owners of hotels."
