It’s good that the exhibition will open at the Church on the Blood on Tsar’s Day. It will be interesting to see photographs, especially those where the Patriarch is with people in parishes. I'll go if I can after my shift.

It’s good that the exhibition is located at the Church on the Blood on Tsar’s Day. Peter, if you go after your shift, tell us later which photos you remember most, especially with people in the parishes. I'll try to get away this weekend too.

It’s good that the exhibition is located at the Church on the Blood on Tsar’s Day. It’s interesting to see how the Patriarch communicates with people in the parishes - in Yekaterinburg such photographs are always alive. I’ll try to drop by these days after I’ve cleaned up everything in the garden.

I agree, the Church on the Blood is especially touching these days. I also love most the pictures where he is with ordinary people in parishes, you can see how simply he communicates. Petya, after what shift do you usually manage to escape?

It’s good that it’s there, at the Church on the Blood, that everything is especially appropriate these days. I, too, always notice how in the photo the Patriarch with parishioners - without unnecessary pomp, in a simple way. Petya, what shift do you usually work on, at a factory or in a store?

I agree, everything at the Church on the Blood on Tsar’s Day is especially touching. But last year I stood there at the service and saw how the Patriarch simply greeted the grandmothers after the liturgy, without any fuss. Petya, you're at the store, probably on the morning shift?

Екатерина Новикова

Yes, the Church on the Blood has a really special atmosphere these days. And last year I was also there with my granddaughter, just after the service we stood nearby and saw how he talked to those grandmothers - simply, like a human being. Petya, what shift are you working on now?

Ксения Соловьёва

Yes, it is at the Church on the Blood that you always feel how simple and family-like everything is. Last year, I also saw how he spoke to those grandmothers - without any pomp, just like a neighbor. What shift do you and your granddaughter usually go to work on?

Наталья Соколова

Yes, at the Church on the Blood everything is really homely, without unnecessary solemnity. Last year, I also saw him talking to those grandmothers - as if on a bench at the entrance. My granddaughter and I usually go to the morning service at 8:30, it’s easier for her to stand. What time do you visit most often?

Марина Комарова

My grandson and I usually have an evening party, after school, at six. And with those grandmothers, he really is like neighbors - I also saw him asking one about his cucumbers, without any ceremony. The Church on the Blood is always so soulful.
