Gut, dass der Militärkrankenhaus in Brjansk geweiht wurde. Hoffentlich hilft das den Verletzten, die dort behandelt werden, ein bisschen Ruhe und Kraft zu finden.

Васил Стефанов

Добре е, че са осветили болницата. Дано ранените там да намерят поне малко покой и да се оправят по-бързо.

Emily Adams

Good to hear the military hospital in Bryansk has been blessed. Those lads recovering from wounds need all the help they can get, both medical and spiritual.

Величка Тодорова

Съгласна съм, Васил, добре е, че са осветили болницата. Надявам се лекарите там да имат сили да лекуват всички, които пристигат. А ти как мислиш, често ли се правят такива освещавания на военни обекти у нас?

Освячення лікарні — це добре, особливо коли йдеться про поранених. У нас у Львові теж часом благословляють нові медичні приміщення, хоч і не військові. А як часто таке роблять у Болгарії, Величко?

Good point, Emily – the spiritual side matters just as much when someone's lying there with a bad wound. Our parish sent a box of prayer books and icons over there last month; hope they bring some quiet comfort between the surgeries.

Helen Bennett

Our parish did something similar a couple years back with the VA hospital here in the city — we brought a few small icons that could sit on the bedside tables without getting in the way. Did yours include any of those little laminated prayer cards for the sick? Those always seem to get passed around more than the books.

Laura Baker

Our parish gave out those little laminated prayer cards too, and you're right, they went like hotcakes. We also tucked in a few small icons of the Theotokos of the Tender Heart that could fit on the tray tables. Did the VA folks end up keeping any of the icons long-term or did they get rotated out?

Paul Johnson

Yeah, we did the laminated prayer cards too — the ones with the Prayer for the Sick on one side. The hospital staff said they get passed around a lot between patients. Did your group make the icons yourselves or order them from somewhere?

Elizabeth Johnson

We handed out similar cards at the VA last year and they disappeared fast too. The Tender Heart icons stayed put on most of the trays, though a couple nurses asked if they could move one to the nurses’ station instead. Did yours end up in the patients’ rooms long-term?

Olivia Campbell

Yeah, we ordered the icons from a small workshop in upstate New York that a friend recommended. The laminated cards sound practical — ours are just paper copies that get tacked up and replaced when they wear out. Do the staff ever ask for extras to keep at the nurses’ station?
