Beginning of the school year in Tyukalinsktranslated

September 5, 2026 · 1 min read

With the blessing of His Eminence Bishop Vikenty, the dean of the Tyukalinsk district, Archpriest Dimitry Grishin, attended the ceremonial functions in the lyceum and gymnasium of the city of Tyukalinsk. Together with the heads of education of the district, the head of the municipality and other invited guests, he congratulated everyone on the beginning of the new school year.

Having blessed the children, addressing the students, Father Dimitri wished them to confidently walk the path of knowledge to happiness, while not forgetting to cultivate the good qualities of the soul and learn to live according to God's truth. He emphasized that each of them must become a worthy heir and creator of their Motherland, multiply its achievements and honor the memory of the founders.

He wished all students not to be afraid of difficulties, to boldly follow their dreams, to enjoy every new discovery and to remember: school is not only lessons, but also a place where character is strengthened and true friendship is born. May the Lord grant them wisdom, the joy of knowledge and faith in their own strength.

It’s good that Father Dimitri visited the lyceum and gymnasium, and not just the church. I especially remember about “cultivating the good qualities of the soul” - now children need this most of all. May the Lord truly give them the strength not to be afraid of difficulties, as he said.

Dobře, že otec Dimitrij šel přímo do škol a nejen do chrámu. To „vzraščivat dobré kačestva duši“ se mi taky líbilo nejvíc, děti to dnes opravdu potřebují. Ať se jim daří i ta přátelství, která se tam rodí.
