On June 19, 2018, on the 104th birthday of the ever-memorable Metropolitan Anthony (Bloom), His Grace Bishop Matthew of Sourozh served a memorial service for the founder of the Diocese of Sourozh at the Dormition Cathedral in London.

His Grace was served by the clergy of the church - Archpriest Maxim Nikolsky and Protodeacon Vadim Santsevich.

At the end of the panikhida, Vladyka Matthew addressed the parishioners with a sermon, especially noting the invaluable contribution of the ever-memorable Metropolitan Anthony to the development of Orthodoxy in the British Isles for more than 50 years of his pastoral and archpastoral activities in the UK.
