Parishioners of St. Barbara's Church and teachers of the Toksovo school helped servicemen of the 132nd Motorized Rifle Brigadetranslated

October 31, 2026 · 1 min read

Parishioners of the Church of the Holy Great Martyr Barbara in the village of Rakhya, teachers of the Toksovo school and concerned residents responded to the appeal of the confessor of the 132nd Gorlovka Motorized Rifle Brigade, Archpriest Vladimir Makarenko, with a request for help for military personnel.

On the eve of winter, there was an urgent need for an electric generator to ensure the operation of the field site. An autonomous source of electricity is necessary for lighting and heating premises, charging radio stations and powering surveillance devices.

Thanks to the joint efforts of parishioners, teachers and all participants in the charity collection, the necessary generator was purchased and has already been sent to its destination.

The rector of St. Barbara's Church, Priest Oleg Patrikeev, expresses his sincere gratitude to everyone who took part in fundraising, helped with the organization of delivery or contributed to the dissemination of information.
