“All the parishioners froze. The priest started crying right in the altar.” Incident in the churchtranslated

Yulia UZUN

My encounter with God occurred in childhood. And it is connected with a real miracle, which I personally witnessed. But it’s unlikely that I would have ended up in that place and at that time if... not for another miracle that happened earlier. So, I'll tell you in order.

Parents. 1975. From the family archive

My family was not a believer. Dad was even an ardent atheist. Worked at a factory. When he was sent on a business trip to Algeria, one amazing thing happened to him. One day, while working on the fifth floor, he fell and began to fall. And unexpectedly for himself he shouted: “Saint Nicholas, help!” This is what his grandmother once prayed. In the area of ​​the second floor, it caught on the fittings. Later, dad shared: it felt like someone had picked him up in the air and carefully hung him there. In general, everyone quickly ran up and took it off. This unexpected rescue served as some kind of incentive. And dad began to think about his life. He began to slowly go to church and became a member of the church. And moreover, he decided to become a priest. Quite quickly he was ordained. By the way, his first church was in honor of St. Nicholas in the village of Nikolaevka. I was ten years old then.
