Simona TudorThe service seems to have been full of peace, especially since they specifically prayed for peace. I am glad that Archbishop Stefan came to Gomel and served together with the priests there. How many believers were at the Liturgy that day?

Светлана НовиковаIt’s good that Bishop Stefan came and served together with the local priests. Prayers for peace are especially important now. And how many people were in the cathedral is really interesting, Simona, usually on such holidays there are a decent crowd of people.

Татьяна ЛебедеваYes, Stefan arrived, and it was clear that the service turned out to be very collected. There were about two hundred people in the cathedral, no less, especially closer to communion. Were you there that day?

Георгий ИвановIt’s good that Bishop Stefan came to Gomel precisely for this holiday. Two hundred people is normal for a weekday in a cathedral, especially when they are praying for peace. Tatyana, did you take communion that day or did you just stand there?
