Pilgrimage to New Jerusalem of the parish of the Elias Church in the village of Chapaevkatranslated

On November 4, on the Day of the Celebration of the Kazan Icon of the Mother of God, after the Divine Liturgy, parishioners of the Ilyinsky Church in the village of Chapaevka, together with the rector, priest Alexy Kalachikov, made a pilgrimage to the Resurrection New Jerusalem Stavropegic Monastery. Then the pilgrims visited the State Historical and Art Museum of New Jerusalem, where they took part in the annual All-Russian event “Night of the Arts”, dedicated to the Day of National Unity. In the exhibition hall with the new exhibition “Russia in the 17th century: a long history,” the group listened to a lecture by the head of the museum’s historical department, candidate of historical sciences Maria Aleksandrovna Kryuchkova. The researcher’s story, dedicated to one of the most difficult and critical periods of Russian history, allowed us to dive deeper into the historical context of ancient relics.
