Хорошо, что детям школьные сумки дарят, особенно первоклашкам. У нас в Екатеринбурге тоже такие акции бывают, но без агиасмоса редко обходится. Интересно, сколько «протаков» в этом году придёт?

It is good that bags are given to children, especially first graders. In Vinnytsia, we also hold such promotions at parishes, and agiasmos is always held at the beginning of September. I wonder how many first-graders will gather at the town hall this time.

Nice to see the blessing of the waters right at the start of the school year for those little first-graders. Our parish does something similar every August with backpacks and a short prayer before classes begin. Wonder how many kids will actually show up at city hall that Sunday.
