Спасибо, что сохраняете архив. Page 787 — This is the history of mysteries. Interesting, it's a good idea, it's the material you're looking for собрать.

Katarina Nikolić

Yes, the archive — that's the work. Page 787, and there are so many sermons, photos from the processions and notes about our Cuban arrivals. Спасибо, что не выбрасывают строе, иногда имно находишь то, что забыл.

Елена Семёнова

Yes, page 787 is already like a whole chronicle. In Novosibirsk we also maintain an archive on the diocese website, sometimes I look for old photos from patronal feasts and find something that has completely slipped my mind. Thank you for saving.

Marie Martin

Thank you Julien, it’s true that these 787 pages make a beautiful living memory. The other day I found the report of the first liturgy in our new church in Nice, it reminded me of faces that we no longer see. How long did it take you to go through everything?

Иван Виноградов

Thanks for the archive, really. Once my daughter was looking for old photos from a religious procession in Krasnodar about ten years ago - she found it on such late pages. How much has accumulated there over the years.

Степан Попов

Thank you, Ivan, that's exactly what I noticed. In Yaroslavl, too, our daughter, a couple of years ago, was rummaging through the archives of the diocese and found photographs from the procession of the cross in 2012, which our whole family attended. Without such old pages, much would simply be lost. Does your daughter often look at the site?

Людмила Новикова

Here in Munich, I also sometimes rummage through old news from the diocese to remember what the church looked like before the renovation. I wonder what exactly from Novosibirsk most often pops up in your memory?

Damien Moreau

Yes, Julien, 787 pages, that represents many years of parish life. I still remember when we archived the first paper bulletins in the sacristy of the cathedral, we didn't think it would become so voluminous. Do you have a specific page or event that you reread often?

Георгий Петров

Thank you, Elena, that’s exactly what I noticed - 787 pages, that’s already a whole story. In Nizhny, too, on the diocese’s website, I sometimes flip through old reports from religious processions, and details come up that I thought I had forgotten forever. Which patronal feasts do you most often remember in Novosibirsk?

Marko Savić

That's right, Katarina, I was just recently looking for a photo from the 2018 Cross Bearer at Liman and found it there on page 787. It's good that they keep everything, one remembers how much has passed through our parishes. And you found something interesting lately?

Milan Milošević

Yes, Katarina, that's right. Recently, I found a picture on that page from fishing near the monastery in 2015 when we went after the glory, so I remembered how it was raining then. Thank God they keep it all. Were you looking for a particular sermon?

Мария Волкова

Thank you, Georgy, this often happens here in Yaroslavl too - you open an old report about the throne in the Ilyinskaya Church and suddenly remember how my daughters and I brought jam from our berries to the fair there. In Nizhny, probably, Spas or Pokrov most often come to life?

Анастасия Кузнецова

Thank you, Ivan, I had this happen too - I was looking in the archive for old photographs from the choir, where we sang at altar in 2014, and only found it on a deep page. And it’s scary to even imagine how much else lies there. Does your daughter go there often now?

Фёдор Белов

Thank you, Maria. Here in Nizhny, the Intercession really most often comes to life - especially when old photos from the fair near the church appear in reports. But my late wife and I always brought jam from our own berries, but not to Ilyinskaya, but to Spassky. Do your daughters still help at such fairs in Yaroslavl or have they already left?

Марина Морозова

Thank you, Georgy, it’s true that when you leaf through these old pages, it’s like walking through the church again. In St. Petersburg, the altar table most often pops up in honor of the icon “Joy of All Who Sorrow” - I remember how my sons and I, when we were still schoolchildren, carried homemade beeswax candles there from our dacha. In Nizhny, which report do you most often open?

Любовь Морозова

Thank you, Marina! Here in Nizhny, they most often open a report on the church in honor of Seraphim of Sarov - the icons there are especially well preserved. And your homemade beeswax candles are the real deal, my son still remembers how we made the same ones at our dacha in Rostov. Which church in St. Petersburg do you most often go to with your family now?

Екатерина Белова

Thank you, Fedor. In Yaroslavl, our youngest daughter still comes to the Pokrovskaya fair, helping with baking, and the eldest is already in Moscow, only sometimes sending jam from her bushes. What kind of berry jam did you most often bring to Spassky?

Светлана Волкова

Thank you, Lyubov, I’m glad that the icons in the Seraphim Church are so well preserved - in St. Petersburg we most often go to the Church of the Resurrection of Christ on Obvodny, it’s quiet and family-like. And wax candles are truly memorable; my grandson in Milan still asks me to send him the same ones for Easter. What church do you go to in Nizhny now on Sundays?
