I am glad that the children from "Snegiri" visited the church of St. Andrew just before the beginning of the school year. It's good that they showed them something light and calm before all these ambulances and new notebooks. I hope they had a good time there.

Good to hear the kids from Sneguiri got to visit St. Andrew's right before the school rush. Sounds like a calm stop before all the lines and new notebooks. Hope the priests in Kazan deanery had an easy time at those school assemblies too.

It's good that Snegir's children were in St. Andrew's Cathedral on the eve of September 1. They calmly looked at everything before the lines and new notebooks began. Like in our Telavi, Father Giorgi often takes children to the church before school.
