It’s good that Pavel Astakhov handed over the monuments to Nicholas II and St. Luke. I wonder where exactly they will be placed - near the church or in the center? The procession “Dear New Martyrs” is also necessary, last year my daughter and I took part in a similar one, it was memorable.

It's good that Pavel Astachov dedicated those statues. St. Lukáš was a doctor and a bishop, which would also be appreciated here in Olomouc. I would like to know where they want to build them, if near the church or somewhere in the square. The Way of the Cross of the New Martyrs is a good idea, we also did a similar one last year.

The spot for those statues will make a big difference. I'd put St. Luke near the hospital if they let them, since he was a doctor himself. Our parish joined the "Way of the New Martyrs" walk last summer too – the kids still talk about it.

It’s good that Astakhov donated the monuments. It would really be better to place Saint Luke, as a doctor, near the hospital, and Nicholas II - near the church, probably. Last year my brother and I went through the procession “Dear New Martyrs,” and we still remember how we walked along the river.
