September 26, 2026 · 1 min read

On September 25, in the spiritual and educational center of the Polotsk diocese for students of class 5 “A” of the educational institution “Polotsk State Gymnasium No. 1 named after F. Skorina” a library hour “The Glorification of the Mother of God” was held. The librarian of the parish of the Church of St. Michael the Archangel in Novopolotsk, Olga Bakunovich, was invited to the event.

At the beginning of the library hour, the Center’s methodologist Valentina Ivanovna Treshchenok told the schoolchildren about the book “The Law of God” and why it is important to fulfill God’s Commandments in life.

The parish librarian Olga Bakunovich introduced the children to the twelve holidays established in the Orthodox Church in honor of the Most Holy Theotokos. The story was accompanied by colorful presentation slides and video material.

It is good that the children showed "The Law of God" and reminded them of the Commandments. At our Cragujevac parish, we also have the librarian speak about the twelve great feasts of the Theotokos, and the children most remember the slides about the Feast of the Protection of the Theotokos. Thank you to the organizers from Polotsk.
