It is good that the diocese is also involved, not just the municipality. In Sofia, we also have such initiatives in some neighborhoods, but they still rarely reach real help groups. It will be interesting to see exactly how this arrangement will work in practice.

It is good that the municipality and the diocese have decided to work together in Yekaterinburg as well. In Sofia, there are also such attempts in some neighborhoods, but they really rarely reach real help groups, as Nikolay says. Interesting how it will look in practice – whether there will be regular meetings or courses for families, for example.

It's good that the diocese is involved with the town hall, not just one. Here in Sibiu, we saw how the priests from the cathedral helped some families with drinking problems through prayer and kind words, but without regular groups it is difficult to keep them going. I wonder if they will also do hands-on classes or just occasional meetings.
