July 16, 2026 · 1 min read

On July 14, the traditional holiday of the beginning of the harvest “Zazhinki-2026” was held in the Berezinsky district. The event took place at the production facilities of the SUP “Zdravushka-agro” near the village of Domashki.

Among the honored guests of the holiday were the head of the district A.V. Sokolovsky, the leadership of regional structures and the dean of the Berezinsky district, Archpriest Ilya Goncharuk.

According to the established good tradition, the beginning of large-scale field work was consecrated with prayer. After the welcoming words, Father Ilya, together with the cleric of the deanery, Priest Alexander Belotserkovsky, performed a prayer service before the start of the harvest. The clergy blessed the agricultural workers and sprinkled holy water on agricultural equipment, symbolically entrusting the upcoming work to God's providence. As the Church reminds us, every perfect gift comes from God, and the success of any human endeavor is impossible without His gracious help.

With the blessing of the clergy, the harvesting campaign began in the region. May the coming days of work be safe, and may the harvest be a worthy reward for your efforts.
