Orthodox Church enthrones leader (video)

The Russian Orthodox Church has enthroned its new leader at a ceremony in the Cathedral of Christ the Savior in Moscow. Metropolitan Kirill of Smolensk and Kaliningrad became the 16th leader of the Church, succeeding Patriarch Alexiy II, who died in December. He was formally enthroned after senior bishops chanted chanted "Axios!" -- the Greek word for "worthy" -- three times.
