Protopresbyter Vladimir greeted the students, parents, and teachers on the start of the academic year, offering words of encouragement. He remarked: “September 1st is a special day. For first graders, it marks the beginning of their school journey; for graduates, it is a year of significant decisions and farewell to school. I wish everyone diligence, for success in studies depends greatly on diligence—both teachers and students. To the young people, I especially pray for diligence in studies and respect for elders. To educators, patience and wisdom. And to all together, God’s blessing in every endeavor.” The Protopresbyter also attended the first lesson of the day in the seventh grade, dedicated to the theme “Knowledge Today—Strength and Prosperity of Belarus Tomorrow!” Back to Home

Good to see Fr Vladimir there at school 11. The bit about wishing the kids diligence and respect for elders makes sense – that's what actually gets them through the year. Nice they joined the 7th grade lesson too.
