On November 8, on the 23rd Sunday after Pentecost, on the day of remembrance of the Great Martyr Demetrius of Thessalonica, in the church complex of the Prophet Elijah of God in the city of Koltushi, a special joyful event took place during the Divine Liturgy - the consecration of the newly painted icon of the holy righteous John of Kronstadt.
The uniqueness of this image lies in its semantic and educational significance: on the reverse side of the icon the life of the saint is described in detail. Now every believer who resorts to the prayerful help of Father John will be able not only to offer his prayers to him, but also to become more closely acquainted with his righteous life, pastoral labors and spiritual deeds.
The consecration of the icon became evidence of the ongoing veneration of the All-Russian priest and an important event in the spiritual life of the parish, uniting parishioners in common prayer and joy.
