It’s good that such seminars are held in the deanery, and not just in offices. Here in Novosibirsk we also encounter this, especially after a shift. Who led the seminar, a priest or a specialist?

They are doing well to bring it inside the parish and not only in the offices. In Volos we see the same problem after the shift at the factory, especially among the electricians. Who finally did it, the priest or the doctor?
