Thank God that they read the akathist to Saint Sergius together. I saw on the video how they sang "Rejoice, Sergius, the miracle worker", it gave me goosebumps. In our church, we also often sing his akathist, especially before exams.

Serhii Radonezhsky always helped in difficult times, that's true. In Poltava, we also keep his icon in the workshop at the power plant, because the repair work is sometimes such that you cannot cope without prayer. It is good that the exarch co-served and read the akathist together.

Yes, Serhiy, Serhiy Radonezhsky really helps in difficult times. We also have his image hanging in the control room at the bus park in Poltava, because when flights are disrupted and everything falls apart, without a short prayer you don't even know what to grab onto. At which power plant do you work?
