On September 19, a Divine Liturgy was celebrated in the newly constructed chapel dedicated to the Nativity of the Most Holy Theotokos in the remote village of Meskoricy. The divine service was conducted by the Episcopal Missionary and Secretary of the Diocesan Administration of the Ivanovo-Voznesensk Diocese, Priest Georgy Vityazev, together with Orthodox volunteers from the Ivanovo Metropolitanate and pilgrims.

The chapel was built near the site of a pre-revolutionary chapel that was destroyed during the Soviet years. The new wooden chapel was constructed through the efforts of local residents and benefactors. On September 24, 2022, by the blessing of Metropolitan of Ivanovo-Voznesensk and Vichugsk Ioasaf, Priest Georgy Vityazev consecrated it.

After the Divine Liturgy, as is customary, a common meal was organized for all those present.

According to the records of the Church of the Transfiguration in Ivanovo
