A new academic year has begun at the medical college for future nursestranslated

On September 15, the head of the diocesan course “Sister of Mercy,” Priest Dimitry Subbotin, met with first-year students of the Ulyanovsk Medical College named after A.L. Polenov at UlSU. The meeting marked the beginning of a new academic year for the students of the sisterhood.

The future sisters got to know each other and their mentors, discussed the upcoming work, internal regulations and the training program for the year.

— The main difference between this course and regular vocational education is active service. The pupils carry out church obediences and provide patronage to people in need of help: they help lonely elderly parishioners of churches, care for seriously ill people at home, and visit social institutions,” noted Priest Dimitry Subbotin. — Modern female students are first of all instilled with traditional values: they are taught the basics of Christian morality, proper interaction with people and active love for their neighbors. The program has the status of additional education for medical students and trains personnel who combine high professionalism with deep spiritual culture.

At the end of the meeting, the course director answered questions from the first-year students.

Well…
