Nice to hear that Dmitri Donskoi's Moщи are now in the Church of Christ the Savior. I saw a piece of his armor at the exhibition in Moscow last year, it was impressive. Will the relics stay there longer?

Mateusz Nowak

Yes, worshiping in the Church of Christ the Savior is always something special. I remember being in Moscow last year and seeing the same armor at an exhibition - it's heavy, it's really impressive. I wonder if they'll stay there longer than usual this time.

The relics of Dmytro Donsky in the Cathedral of Christ the Savior are always respected. My late husband once told how in his youth he stood in line for them in the Don Monastery, then still in a small box. I wonder if they will be taken out for general worship, or only for the patriarchal service.

Yes, Lesya, I also remember how in the 80s there was a queue for a small box in the Don Monastery. My husband was still a student at the time and said that people waited for two or three hours. I wonder if they will bring them out this time for everyone, or really just for the service.
