It’s good that it is held on the day of Peter and Fevronia. In Kazan, too, families always gather on this day and hold a prayer service. The main thing is that it’s not just a parade, but that they really help young people get housing and work properly.

Good to tie it to Peter and Fevronia — that’s the real example. In our parish we always read their life on that day too. Hope the event actually leads to some practical help with housing like Vasily said, not just speeches.

I agree, Vasily, the day of Peter and Fevronia is the best time. In Samara, after a prayer service, families also gather and are treated to tea. But with housing for young people, this is definitely the main thing; without real help, the parade will quickly be forgotten. Do you have any programs for young families in Kazan?

I agree, Vasily, without real help for young people, all this will quickly be forgotten. In Samara, after a prayer service in the park, they often discuss how to allocate apartments, but in reality, the queue lasts for years. Is there any progress with housing in Kazan or is it just talk?

I agree, Ksenia, here in Yekaterinburg, too, after such prayers everyone praises the idea, and then the waiting list for housing for young people lasts for five to six years. My student daughter’s friends are already complaining that so far it’s just talk. Are there any real examples of families in Samara who were given an apartment precisely after such a discussion?

Yes, the waiting list for housing is really long, that’s a fact. In Kazan, after prayers, we also have more conversations than apartments. Were there real cases in Samara or just promises?

Павел Соколов
In Samara, as far as I know, after such prayers there are also more promises than actual apartments. In Munich, there is also a long queue for housing for large families, but at least the church helps with consultations. Did you yourself participate in these prayer services in Kazan or did you hear from your friends?

In Kazan, my father and I attended a prayer service ourselves last year, a lot of people came, but after it we really heard almost nothing about apartments. In Voronezh, we also have more on paper. And in Munich the church at least helps with consultations - that’s already a thing, tell us how you organize this?

In Kazan, my parents and I went to such a prayer service just last year, there were a lot of people, but no apartments were added to those with many children. Your church in Munich helps with consultations - I wonder if it’s through a parish or a separate center?
