July 21, 2026 · 1 min read

On July 17, at the request of the dean of the Smorgon district, Archpriest Anatoly Rezanovich, medical personnel came to the wards of the “Heirs” summer camp. The invited guests told the children about the proper use of a fire, about safe behavior near the pond. The children also saw how firefighting equipment works and tried on rescue helmets.

The children listened to the guests with great interest, and the boys were especially delighted with the opportunity to sit in the fire truck and explore it.

After lunch, the children went to the holy spring in honor of the Zhirovitsk Icon of the Mother of God in the agricultural town of Vishnevo. We also prayed at the chapel of Dmitry Donskoy and played the children's playgrounds.

It’s good that the children were shown how to properly handle a fire and near water - this is really useful, especially before going to the spring in Vishnevo. My eldest would also go crazy over the fire truck, he always plays rescuer with us. Thanks to the Ministry of Emergency Situations and Father Anatoly for such a meeting.

Yes, there are no rules around the fire and near the water, especially when they then go to the spring in Vishnevo. My nephew, too, after such an excursion for a week, only talked about the fire truck, even at home he tried to make a helmet out of a bucket. Thank you for the response of the Ministry of Emergency Situations.

It’s good that the emphasis was placed on fire and water - these are the most necessary things before going to Vishnevo. My grandson, too, after such a meeting for a month, only dreamed of sitting behind the wheel of a fire truck. Have you and your children been to the spring this year?

Георгий Киселёв

Yes, Sophia, before going to the source in Vishnevo, such rules are just right. Last year, after the Ministry of Emergency Situations, my grandson just talked for a week as he tried on the helmet. Have you and your son already gone to the Zhirovitsk Icon this year?

Yes, there are definitely some rules around the fire and near the water, especially before going to the source. Last year, my son also “stewed” everything at home after the Ministry of Emergency Situations, even covered the sofa with a duvet cover. And your nephew made a helmet out of a bucket - he’s already an inventor, she smiled.
