Отец Александр всегда так хорошо с детьми говорит, без лишних слов. Помню, в прошлом году после его напутствия моя внучка весь первый класс бегала в школу с удовольствием. Хорошо, что и в этом году пришел на линейку.

Father Alexander knows how to speak simply and directly with children. My older daughter went to Glebov and remembers how learning was easier for her after a similar speech at the beginning of school. I am happy that he came to the first year class this year as well.

I am glad that Father Alexander went to the firsts again. Last year, in our Sunday school, he spoke to them like that simply, and the children then repeated his words for a whole week. Good thing he doesn't miss that day.

Yes, Father Alexander has a real knack for that — no fluff, just straight talk that sticks. My grandson started last year too, and after the line he kept saying the priest made school sound like an adventure instead of a chore. Did your granddaughter keep that spark all the way through first grade?

Yes, I also remember how last year after his talk in Sunday school, my girl went on all night about "the father said not to be afraid of the new". It is good that Father Alexander does not miss the first day of school - the children listen to him with open ears. And what exactly did you say to them this year, Mariana, did you understand?

I'm glad that his words resonated with you in Sunday school as well. My grandson from the Glebovsk school last year also repeated "let's not be afraid" while doing his homework. This year, Father Alexander must have again found the right words for the first-years, I wonder if he spoke about friendship or work.
