On the feast day of the Right-Believing Saints Peter and Fevronia of Murom, families gathered at the church parish. The celebration united parishioners of all ages in shared activities—from communal prayer to creative projects and lively games.
The celebration began with a prayer service to the saints who are patrons of family and marriage. The rector, Priest Sergius Chukovich, concluded the event by greeting the parishioners, offering prayers for steadfast faith, family joy, peace, and harmony.
For adult participants, a workshop was held to craft unique wall clocks from vinyl records. Under the guidance of experienced artisan Natalia, attendees transformed old records into stylish timepieces, perfect as interior decorations or meaningful gifts for loved ones.
While adults engaged in creative work, young parishioners, led by Mother Anastasia Chukovich, enthusiastically participated in a themed treasure hunt. The game, held within the church grounds, explored the history of the feast, the lives of Saints Peter and Fevronia, and the value of family. Children completed tasks that deepened their understanding of these themes.
The celebration concluded with a warm family photo session, allowing each participant to capture this joyful day with their closest loved ones.
