FRIEST NIKOLAY OKHOTNITSKY ATTENDED THE CELEMENTAL CELEBRATION DEDICATED TO THE BEGINNING OF THE SCHOOL YEAR AT MOZHEIKOVSKAYA SECONDARY SCHOOLtranslated

September 1, 2026 · 1 min read

The priest congratulated teachers, students and parents on the beginning of the new school year and wished God's help to everyone. Father Nikolai noted that studying at school is the happiest period in a person’s life. This is the time when he learns a lot of new things, improves and develops the most important knowledge, skills and abilities.

In order for the work to bring more results, the priest advised starting each new day with the prayer “Our Father”, and at the end of the day thanking God.

The guest of honor wished teachers and parents strength, patience and wisdom in raising children.

Gracias por compartir la noticia. Me gustó especialmente que el padre Nicolás recordara que la escuela es el periodo más feliz de la vida, porque es verdad, uno aprende sin tantas preocupaciones. Mi hijo está en primaria y empezamos este año con la misma oración que recomendó, «Отче наш» por la mañana; ojalá les dé buenos frutos a todos en Можейково.

It is true that father Nicholas said well that school years are the happiest time. My eldest son has now moved to the fourth grade at the Batumi school, and I also recommend him to read "Mamao ouro" in the morning. Parents and teachers really need a lot of patience this year.

Maria, it's good that you are teaching your son "Our Father" in Batumi. My youngest daughter moved to fourth grade last year here, near our parish, and I recommend the same thing in the morning. Parents really need a lot of patience this year, especially when classes end late.

Yes, I agree with what you say, Javier. That stage of primary school is special because everything is new and without so many burdens. I'm glad you're already starting the day with “Отче наш”; I did it with my daughters and then we saw how they did in school. What grade is your child in this year?
