Thank you for mentioning the wide range of ministries - our parish also recently launched a youth group that connects the parishes of Nizhny Novgorod and Pavlovsk, and works with just such networks.

Вера Васильева

We also have youth groups in Novosibirsk, but so far only within the city. I’m interested to know how you managed to connect the two cities?

Степан Кузнецов

I’m always glad to see how youth groups connect parishes. In Pavlovo, the All Saints parish recently opened such a project? And how old are the participants - from 14 to 18, or older?

Татьяна Михайлова

Yes, I heard about the project in Pavlov, but I don’t know the details. What kind of events are held at All Saints? It's interesting to know how young people are getting involved.

Ирина Соловьёва

Yes, in Pavlov, “All Saints” launched a youth club last fall. The guys there are from 14 to 22 years old, they gather once every two weeks - either they volunteer in the parish kitchen, or they discuss the Gospel with tea and pies. Stepan, do you have something similar in your parish?

Елена Соловьёва

It's interesting that you mentioned Pavlovo. “All Saints” mainly gathers young people through volunteer trips to help the elderly and joint hikes with overnight campfires. What projects have you participated in?

Екатерина Попова

Yes, in Pavlovo we also have volunteers visiting grandmothers, which helps keep in touch. I was more involved in the gardening project at the church - together with the youth, we planted vegetables for the parish refectory. Do you often have such trips at All Saints?

Марина Иванова

At All Saints, we have such visits to the elderly once a month, usually after the service. In your gardening project, what did you plant this year—tomatoes or more greens? It's interesting how young people respond.
