I remember visiting the Alexander Nevsky Lavra years ago and seeing the spot where his relics were first laid after the transfer from Vladimir. Good to hear they're planning the feast properly in the Spiritual Center — any word on whether they'll have a procession this year?

Yes, I was also in the Lavra, standing next to the place where the relics were first placed. It is good that the Sviatodukhov center is seriously preparing. Haven't you heard if there will be a procession after the liturgy this year?

Yes, I was also in the Alexander Nevsky Lavra two years ago and saw exactly this place where the relics were first placed. It's great that they plan so thoroughly at the spiritual center. Hopefully this time there will be a cloister after the liturgy again, that would be a real occasion for our community.
