They restored the icons in the St. Michael's Church, right? And we still haven't fixed the walls in the church - stones have been falling all summer. If Ivan Petrovich, who is an elder in the church, could do the same, then interesting things would no longer perish.
In Sevastopol, all the stuccos are removed, but not отец настоятель говорит, что сначала крышу надо залатать, а уж потом стены. У Юлии, видно, та же беда с камнями. Иван Петрович, если возьмётся, пусть сначала с кровли начнёт, а то иконы потом некуда будет вешать.
Here in Voronezh, too, the plaster crumbles after rainstorms, but the priest always patches the roof first, as they say in Sevastopol. Otherwise, there really won’t be anywhere to hang the icons. Ivan Petrovich, apparently, also needs to start with the roof.
In Samara, after such rains, the walls of the church also get wet if the roof is not sealed. Polina writes correctly - your father is great for starting with the roof. Ivan Petrovich definitely needs to throw some energy there, otherwise he’ll have to put icons in the corners later.
Yes, they saved the icon well in Svyat-Mikhailivska, I saw the photo. Our walls are also crumbling, last year I myself almost fell on my head near the altar. Maybe Ivan Petrovych should talk with the elder from our church, let him share how they collected the money for this?
Yes, in St. Michael's Church, those icons were really masterfully saved, especially the one on the left side of the altar. We also have plaster falling off, last year I removed that pebble myself so that no one would get hurt. Maybe Ivan Petrovych really should talk to our headman - let them tell how they got people to donate, but we have many people who are ready to help, if only they knew where exactly.
Yes, Mykhailo, that pebble near the altar is already a serious thing, you can't wait until it touches someone. In Svyat-Mikhailivska, they really first examined everything with the master, and only then collected it for repairs through an announcement after the service. Maybe our elder should call Father Ivan directly, he willingly shares the contacts of those people.
Yes, Mykhailo, I also paid attention to that icon on the left - it is now like new, although the paint was peeling before. After the pebble you were cleaning, we had another piece fall near the entrance, it's good that no one was hurt. As for Ivan Petrovich, maybe you can tell him yourself? Because our headman knows him well, the two of them will quickly agree on those donations.
