The residents of the Psycho-Neurological boarding
home #3 have prayed near the relics of St. Euphrosyne of Polotsk. A pilgrimage to
Polotsk became possible due to the efforts of the Sunday School of St.
Elisabeth Convent and the brothers and sisters of mercy.
In the Sunday school, there is a special group that
consists of the residents of the boarding home. With great pleasure they
attend classes, where they do arts and learn more about God, while any trip
becomes an important event in their life.
They will remember their trip to St. Euphrosyne
Convent for long. The residents of the boarding home visited the convent on
May 9, which is the Victory Day. All the way to Polotsk, the sisters told them
various stories connected with the Great Patriotic War.
The convent established by St. Euphrosyne, the patron
saint of our land, was remembered for the prayers near the relics of the saint,
ancient murals, interesting excursion, and peace and calm in the hearts of the
pilgrims.
It was also a wonderful surprise for everyone to visit
the Berezino reservation, which is a unique nature monument. Here our pilgrims
could walk around the forest and see the various forest animals such as bison,
bear, wolf and others.
