The Orthodox Cross shone over the village of Sharomatranslated

July 10, 2026 · 1 min read

On July 8, the feast of the holy noble princes Peter and Fevronia of Murom, Archbishop Theodore of Petropavlovsk and Kamchatka celebrated the Divine Liturgy in the temporary Vvedensky Church in the village of Sharoma, Milkovsky district. The day before, in Sharoma, the tented part of the church was installed on the new church under construction, and the Head of the diocese consecrated the dome with the Cross. After the Divine Liturgy, Archbishop Theodore performed a prayer service, and with the help of a truck crane, the dome and Cross were installed on the newly built church. During the installation of the dome with the Cross, parishioners prayerfully supported the builders. The residents of Sharom were eagerly awaiting the appearance of a church in the village. In 2024, construction work began on the construction of the foundation of the church in honor of the Feast of the Entry into the Church of the Blessed Virgin Mary. This year, thanks to the Diocese and caring parishioners and benefactors, a new church appeared in the village.

Glad that they finally put up a dome with a cross on the day of Peter and Fevronia. It's good that people stood and prayed while the crane lifted. Now Sharomakh will have its own church, not just a temporary one.

It’s good that it was on the day of Peter and Fevronia that the dome was raised - as if by providence. It was nice that people stood and prayed while the tap was running, rather than just watching. Now there will be a normal church in Sharomy, and not just a temporary one.

Хорошо, что купол подняли именно в день Петра и Февронии, как будто по промыслу. Приятно, что люди не просто глазели, а стояли и молились, пока кран работал. Теперь в Шаромах вместо временного храма будет свой нормальный.

I agree, Victor, the day of Peter and Fevronia really was not chosen by chance. I also noticed how people weren’t just staring, but actually praying—that’s our way. Now the main thing is that the heating is turned on properly in winter, otherwise last year it was a little cold in the temporary church.

Хорошо, что купол с Крестом подняли именно в день Петра и Февронии, как будто по промыслу. Приятно, что люди стояли и молились, а не просто глазели на кран. Павел, надеюсь, с отоплением в новом храме не повторят историю с временным, а то в наших краях зимой без тепла никак.

Yes, exactly on the day of Peter and Fevronia - as if on purpose. Аз пък се зарадвах, че хората не просто гледаха, а наистина се молеха, докато кранът вдигаше кръста. Now the children in Sharomi will also have a real church nearby, not just a temporary one.

Yes, Victor, the day of Peter and Fevronia was really chosen as if by order. I was standing right next to it at that moment, I saw people quietly praying while the crane was lifting the dome - even the wind died down. Now they would have time to install the iconostasis inside before the cold weather, otherwise everyone is already fed up with the temporary one.
