The article deals with the contribution of Hegumen Irinarkh (Shemanovsky) to missionary service in the territory of the Berezovsky vicariate as the head of the Obdorsk mission (1897-1910). The relevance of the proposed re search is due to the fact that the successful missionary endeavors of Hegumen Irinarkh at the end of the 19th century - the first decade of the 20th century can be guidelines for modern missionaries. In 13 years Hegumen Irinarkh managed to gain the trust of the indigenous peoples living in the vicinity of Obdorsk, as well as to increase the effectiveness of the Obdorsk mission. The article presents the main factors that contributed to the success of Hegumen Irinarkh’s missionary activities. With his personal funds he purchased the building of the ethnographic museum and library, equipped the missionary temple, created the Brotherhood in the name of Saint Gury, the wonderworker of Kazan and Sviyazhsk, which carried out research work: studied the life, culture and language of the Samoyeds of the extreme northwest of Siberia, was engaged in translation activities, maintenance of the museum and library. Hegumen Irinarkh promoted the opening of the Women’s Community in the Name of the Icon of the Consolation of “All Who Sorrow”. With the help of nuns invited from the Virov Spassky Convent, it was possible to organize a shelter for girls and an almshouse. Systematic and integrated approaches to evangelizing the natives of Siberia, consolidating the efforts of many social institutions allowed Hegumen Irinarch to implement a large-scale educational project. Thus, the activities of Hgumen Irinarch (Shemanovsky) can be considered as a guideline in the development of modern recommendations for missionary service.
