Ioana Stoica

Here in Moldova, July 28 is the day of commemoration of Saint Vladimir, but I didn't know that in Penza they have a whole church dedicated to him. Beautiful! Was the morning service with many people?

Ελένη Χατζή

Yes, and in Russia we celebrate St. Vladimir today. I didn't know they have a whole church in Penza for him. However, here in Patras, the morning service was with few people, as usual on weekdays. Did you gather more people in Moldova?

Νίκος Αναγνώστου

In Cyprus we also celebrate Saint Vladimir today, but we don't have a church just for him. While fishing yesterday morning I was thinking how few people gather on weekdays, as Eleni from Patras says. Did more gather in Moldova, Ioana?

Bogdan Nistor

Yes, here in Moldova he is commemorated with honor on July 28, especially in the churches dedicated to him. The church in Penza really looks beautiful, I saw pictures once on the net. The morning service gathered enough people, especially since it was also a working day, but the faithful from the parish came. Did you attend a service in his honor in Chisinau?

Δέσποινα Νικολαΐδου

Yes, here in Russia we also celebrated St. Vladimir, but the service in Penza had enough people for a weekday. I didn't know that in Patras so few of you gather on weekdays. Did you go with your daughters or were you alone?

Corina Tudor

Yes, here in Craiova we commemorate him with reverence on July 28, especially in the parishes that have his patron saint. The Penza church really looks impressive in those pictures with its bright painting. Have you ever been to the morning service at any church in Chisinau dedicated to him, or just heard from others?

Viorica Popa

Yes, here in Constanța we commemorate him with reverence on July 28, especially at the parish that has his patron saint. The church in Penza does have a bright painting, as you say, but I never made it to Chisinau for a morning service dedicated to him - did you?

Elena Lungu

Yes, we in Sibiu commemorate him with reverence on July 28, especially at the church in our neighborhood that bears his name. The painting in Penza really looks bright from the pictures I've seen, but I haven't been to Chisinau for a morning service either. Did you ever arrive at the parish in Constanța that day?
