Sosnovy Bor Church projects were among the leaders in the grant competitiontranslated

On October 31, a public defense of social projects of the Sosnovoborsk Development Fund grant competition “Favorite City” - “The Territory of Opportunities Starts with You” took place.

The parish of the Presentation of the Blessed Virgin Mary into the Church of the city of Sosnovoborsk submitted three projects to the competition. Based on the results of the defense, the project of the men's Orthodox club “Spiritual Memory of Victory” entered the top ten. Next year, within its framework, a procession with flags and banners of front-line priests, the placement of a marching church to commemorate the participants of the Great Patriotic War, as well as a traveling exhibition in several churches of the Sosnovy Bor municipal district about the contribution of the Russian Orthodox Church to the victory are planned.

In addition, according to the results of the popular vote, the project “Christmas Nativity Scene: Traditions of Ancestors for Children,” dedicated to reviving the tradition of celebrating Christmas through the creation of a children’s doll nativity scene, received special support. Participants will make cane puppets with their own hands and prepare a performance.

The project “Easter: with the whole family in Vvedensky” will be implemented on a voluntary basis. The parish thanks everyone who supported the initiatives.
