Мій сусід по гаражу років п’ять думав про священство, навіть їздив на зустрічі для кандидатів, а потім чесно сказав: «Не потягну». Після цього спокійно залишився дияконом і тепер гарно допомагає в нашому храмі на Личакові. А ви як думаєте, чи обов’язково мати таке «покликання», щоб бути корисним у церкві?

Maksym's neighbor did it honestly and correctly. Not everyone will make it, and deacon service is also important, especially in a church like Lychakov. Here in Nizhny, one man also thought about the priesthood, went to talks, and then said: "I'd rather be an altar boy and take my grandson to church." A vocation is not always a race.
