In the Spassky Cathedral, in the upper Ilyinsky Church, Bishop Vikenty of Tara and Tyukalinsky performed the Sacrament of Baptism for the son of the assistant to the ruling bishop for economic and construction issues A.G. Fedina and his wife Daria - baby John

The clergy of the Tara Cathedral concelebrated with the Bishop during the service.

Employees of the Diocesan Administration, the cathedral, and relatives and friends of the newly baptized baby prayed in the church.

At the end of the service, Bishop Vikenty, in his parting words, congratulated Alexander Gennadievich and his wife, the leader of the church choir, on the birth of their son, and wished health and God's help to all members of their family, and many years of life.

Lord our God, having sanctified those who believe in You from the filling of the font with Your goodness, bless the present baby, and let Your blessing descend on his head. And just as You blessed King David with the prophet Samuel, bless also the head of Your servant JOHN, by the hand of Me, a sinner, coming to him with Your Holy Spirit, so that He may prosper in age, and in the gray hairs of old age, Your glory will rise, and the good of Jerusalem will see all the days of its life. For all glory is due to You...
