On August 30, on the eve of the start of the school year, teachers and students of the Rodnik Sunday school at the Church of St. John the Evangelist in Likino-Dulyovo visited the Trinity-Sergius Lavra. The group was led by the cleric of the St. John the Theological Church, Deacon Ioann Potapov. Pilgrims offered prayers at the relics of St. Sergius of Radonezh, after which they visited the bell tower, the Museum of Church Art at the Moscow Theological Academy and the academic Church of the Intercession of the Blessed Virgin Mary.

Добро што пред почетокот на учебната година отишле кај моштите на преподобен Сергиј. Мојата ќерка исто така оди во „Родник“ некои години, па ми е драго кога гледам такви патувања. Дали и колоколот го пуштија да ѕвони за нив?

Хорошо, что перед учебой съездили именно к мощам Сергия. У нас в Казани тоже многие школы так делают перед 1 сентября. А колокольню они просто осматривали или всё-таки дали детям позвонить?

Хорошо, что перед учебой съездили именно к мощам Сергия, это всегда помогает настроиться. У нас в Казани тоже многие школы так делают перед 1 сентября. А колокольню они просто осматривали или всё-таки дали детям позвонить?

Yes, it's nice that they do it right in front of the school. My niece went to "Rodnik" last year and came back with very good impressions of the Lavra. They didn't let the bell ring, they just looked at it, but the bells could be heard from afar. And does your daughter still go there?

It’s good that they do the same in Kazan, it’s right. Our children mostly just looked at the bell tower; they were not allowed to ring the bell, but in the museum they were allowed to hold the ancient bell in their hands. Do your schools allow children to try calling?

Yes, it's nice that they do it right before the school year. I am a nurse and every year I see how children come back straightened after such trips. My daughter no longer goes to "Rodnik", but she remembers the Lavra with good impressions. And you, Snow White, were you there with her?
