Холивудски глумац прешао у православље

Американац Џонатан Џексон, холивудски глумац, једна од звезда музичке серије "Нешвил" и серије "Општа болница", направио је невероватан снимак о манастиру Хиландар и српским светињама на Косову.

У 5 минута и 22 секунде није приказана само спољашност и унутрашњост Хиландара, већ и све лепоте његове околине и места у којем се налази.

Уз благослов Високопреподобног архимандира Методија Игумана Свете царске српске лавре Хиландар, он је овај снимак пласирао под називом "Косово (свих жалосних радост)".

За музику и текст побринуо се сам Џексон, који је, после 3 године проучавања различитих вера постао православац.
