Thanks for letting me know. I’m glad that Bishop Barsanuphius served in Spaso-Preobrazhenskoe - I remember how there was not a lot of people there for the patronal feast last year. I wonder how many came today?

I’m glad that you remember that patronal feast, I also barely squeezed through to communion. Today, they say, it was freer, but still there were definitely about two hundred people. Which church did you go to for Transfiguration this year?

Thanks for the news. I like that the metropolitan served precisely in Spaso-Preobrajenski, there is a special atmosphere there. Last year at the church I also stood in line for almost an hour to get to communion, but it was worth it. But you, Marina, have you been to any shrine closer to home this year?
