Thank God that Bishop Onufriy was able to lead the service on the day of the Pochaiv Icon. We also have a small copy of this icon at home, children always ask why we honor it on August 5. It is good that the monastery in Knyazhychy celebrates the throne holiday together with everyone.

I was glad to read that it was on the day of the Pochaiv icon that His Beatitude led the service in Knyazhychy. In our parish, this icon is also often mentioned, especially when we go on trips around Ukraine. I wonder if many people gathered for the throne holiday this time?

Glad to see that His Beatitude Onuphrius was in the Princely Monastery on the very day of the Pochaiv icon. We also have this icon at home, my wife always puts flowers from the garden in front of it on August 5. I wonder if many pilgrims came from Boryspil this time.

Thank God that His Holiness led the service in Knyazhychy precisely on the day of the Pochaiv icon. In our parish in Konstanz, we also always put flowers in front of this icon on August 5, and I also put a soccer ball next to it - because after the liturgy, the boys and I run to the playground. I wonder if many pilgrims from Boryspil came this time?

Thank God that His Beatitude Onufry was able to lead the service precisely on the day of the Pochaiv Icon in Knyazhychy. In our parish, we also always sing the akathist in front of the icon on August 5, and after the liturgy I knit scarves for children from the shelter. I wonder if many pilgrims came from Boryspil this time?

I am glad that the Pochaiv Icon is also venerated in your parish on August 5. There were not many pilgrims from Boryspil in Knyazhychy, mainly their own, from the monastery, and several buses from Kyiv. And which scarves do you knit - woolen or acrylic? My daughters also used to do this for shelter.
