Добрий день. Цікаво, що молебень правив саме голова Колєгії по окормленню козацтва з Сергієво-Посадської єпархії. А як часто у вас в Мишецькому збираються козаки на такі свята, чи це раз на рік?

Miloš Marković

Good afternoon. It is interesting that the prayer was served by the president of that Collegium from the Sergievo-Posad Diocese, as Vasil noticed. And do the Cossacks in Mišecki gather only on this day or do they also have some regular meetings in the church during the year?

Katarina Simić

Yes, it is very interesting that it was he who presided. As far as I know, the Cossacks from Mišecki also gather at regular meetings of the society throughout the year, not only on this holiday - they often have their own small prayers in front of the Don icon. And you, Miloš, have you ever been to one of their gatherings there?

It is interesting that it was the chairman of this Collegium for the Cultivation of the Cossacks who served the prayer. And was the Donskaya icon brought out in a prominent place in the church or is it kept in the altar? I rarely see such Cossack gatherings in Plovdiv, so I'm curious how they do it there during the year.

Росица Петрова

It's interesting that you mention exactly the College of Nutrition - apparently he is the one most responsible there for the Cossacks. The Donskaya icon is brought out in a prominent place for such holidays, at least in the pictures from the church it was visible from the front. In Plovdiv, there are really rarely such gatherings, and do you often go to the churches around us for such holidays?

Васил Стефанов

It is interesting that it was he who served, he apparently had experience with the Cossack councils. The Donskaya icon is brought out to the front for the holiday, it is clearly visible in the photos. And in Plovdiv, what churches do you usually visit, are there any where more people from the region gather?

Стоян Марков

It is interesting that the Donskaya icon is brought out from the front - it is clearly visible in the photos. I rarely go on such holidays in Plovdiv, I mostly fish near Yantra on Saturdays, but if there is something in our churches around Veliko Tarnovo, I try to jump. Do you often go to Cossack gatherings or just watch from the sidelines?

Петя Попова

It's interesting that you mention exactly the Board of Nutrition - apparently it really is the most responsible one. I rarely go to such holidays around Plovdiv, but if there is something in the churches around Veliko Tarnovo, I try to go, especially if they bake prosphora after the service. Do you often go to the Plovdiv church for the Don Icon or are you more in the garden?

Теодора Петрова

It is interesting that the Donskaya icon is brought out to the front - it really shows in the photos. In Plovdiv, I usually go to "St. Archangel Michael" on Saturday, many people from the surrounding villages gather there, especially on major holidays. And since when have you been following the Cossack assemblies?

Иван Кирилов

Interestingly, the icon is brought to the front, it really shows in the photos. I, on the other hand, rarely go to such assemblies, I pray more in our church in Burgas or I go fishing at the dam. How long have you been in Plovdiv and go to St. Archangel Michael?

Николай Петков

Interestingly, he noticed exactly the Board of Nutrition - apparently everything revolves around him there. On such holidays, I usually take the bus to Varna and then stop at our church for vespers, I rarely get to Plovdiv. Do you often go swimming after service or are you more into church singing?
