Library hour “St. Archangel Michael”translated

On November 13, at the spiritual and educational center of the Polotsk diocese for students of class 2 “A” of the State Educational Institution “Secondary School No. 10 named after V.M. Azin of Polotsk” a library hour “St. Archangel Michael” was held. The librarian of the parish of the Church of St. Michael the Archangel in Novopolotsk, Olga Bakunovich, was invited to the event.

Olga Vasilievna prepared a story based on the book of Archpriest Seraphim Slobodsky “The Law of God” about the creation of the invisible world of angels. Schoolchildren also learned that on the Polotsk land, throughout its centuries-old history, many churches were erected in honor of St. Archangel Michael. However, none of these ancient buildings have survived to this day. The historical legacy of the lost churches and the name of the Archangel of the Heavenly Forces has now been adopted by the parish of the young city of Novopolotsk. In the 90s of the twentieth century, the St. Michael's parish was founded in Neftegrad, and Archangel Michael was proclaimed the heavenly patron of the city of Novopolotsk.
