Nice trip! The children were also able to see the churches and workshops, and Mother Tamara's "Days of Creation" lesson seems to have caught on well with them. An initiative with soul, especially for those families.

What a great excursion for children and their families. I'm glad that Mother Tamara gave you that presentation about the Days of Creation, I'm sure it left something in your mind. I hope they continue to organize visits like this to the monastery.

Sounds like a great day for the kids. I like that they got to walk through the temples, see the workshops, and hear Mother Tamara explain the Days of Creation – that’s something they can actually remember. Hope the “Mamino vremya” project keeps bringing more groups out there.

It’s good that the children not only saw the churches, but also visited the workshops. Abbess Tamara’s lesson about “Days of Creation” is something that they will definitely remember, especially those in rehabilitation. Thank you for organizing such trips from the Taldom Center, well done to the “Mom’s Time” project.

It's good that the children also went to the workshops, not only to the churches. Abbess Tamara's lesson on the "Days of Creation" certainly stuck with them, especially those in recovery. "Mamino bremia" is doing a good job.

What a good idea to also take the children to the monastery workshops, not just to the churches. Mother Tamara's presentation on the Days of Creation surely stayed with you, especially those who are in rehabilitation. I hope the “Mamino vremya” project continues to organize more visits like this.

It's good that they took the children to the workshops as well, not only to the churches. Abbess Tamara's lesson about the "Days of Creation" must have stuck in their heads, especially those from the rehabilitation. The Mother Time project is clearly working.

Yes, the lesson on the "Days of Creation" was the best moment for me. Our children in the church choir once learned something similar and it stuck in their minds for a long time. Did mother Tamara also use drawings or just the presentation?

Красимира Христова

Good that you noticed the workshops, Cyril. The children from Taldom were most interested right there - touching clay and drawing icons. Abbess Tamara's "Days of Creation" really stuck with them, especially for those who rarely come out of rehabilitation. The "Mommy Time" project seems to really help.

Paweł Nowak

It's good that the children also went to these workshops and not only visited churches. Igumen Tamara's lesson about the "Days of Creation" certainly stuck in their minds, especially those in rehabilitation. The "Mamino vremya" project does a real job, it's just a pity that it's so far from us from Białystok.

Gabriela Rusu

Yes, that lesson about the "Days of Creation" really hit home with the kids, I saw how wide-eyed they were. Mother Tamara also used some simple drawings on the board, not just the presentation, to make it easier to explain. Did your choir kids sing anything about it after?

Joanna Zielińska

It's good that the children had these workshops, it always leaves more in their minds than just walking around the church. Tamara's igumen lesson on the "Days of Creation" must have been interesting, especially for those in rehabilitation. It's a long way from Białystok, but maybe someday you'll be able to organize something similar closer, we also have such trips for children in Lublin.
