It's good that they conducted the moleben before the start of studies. Father Rostislav's words are exactly that - strength and inspiration for children. My son also went back to school this year, such a blessing would be very useful.

Yes, it's nice that they do the mólében before starting classes. My oldest grandson could use that water blessing and Father Rostislav's words about strength and inspiration, because he is having a hard time concentrating this year. I hope they organize it in our parish too.

Last year we also had such a prayer service before September 1, my son just entered his second year. Father Rostislav said well about communication skills - children now need this most of all, and not just straight A's. It’s good that they sprinkled everyone, after that I felt calmer.
