The clergyman of the Krasnoyarsk Church of the Holy Trinity held a conversation with employees of IK-27translated

On September 28, the full-time cleric of the Church of the Holy Trinity in the city of Krasnoyarsk, Priest Arkady Ivanov, visited correctional colony No. 27, where he gave a lecture for employees of the institution on the topic “Love as the law of life: from the heart of the family to the service.”

During the conversation, the priest said that Christian love is not just a feeling, but sacrificial service and responsibility for one’s neighbor. He paid special attention to the family, noting that employees of the penal system often face professional burnout, and called for maintaining peace in the home, remembering that the family is a small Church. Speaking about official duties, the priest emphasized the importance of maintaining mercy and humanity when working with convicts, explaining that this does not abolish justice, but abolishes anger in the heart.

At the end of the conversation, Father Arkady called on everyone to do good deeds, keep faith and have Christian sacrificial love - for God, neighbors and their work. At the end of the meeting, the priest performed a prayer service, during which everyone prayed, and blessed the personal vehicles of the institution’s employees.
