On July 19, 2026, the rector of the church in honor of the image of the Most Holy Theotokos “Joy of All Who Sorrow” in the village of Kevly, Smorgon region, Priest Pavel Kutko, performed the rite of consecration and consecrated the newly erected worship Cross in the village of Koty.

Local residents gathered together with the priest to pray and share common joy with each other at the cross.

At the end of the consecration, Father John addressed those gathered with a pastoral word, in which he spoke about the meaning of the cross in the life of a Christian, and gave a blessing.

Виолета ПоповаI am glad that there is now a new worship cross in Koty. Father Paul spoke well about its meaning, especially about how the cross helps in everyday life. Thank you for the locals coming together, it always warms us up.

Olivia CampbellNice to see Father Pavel out there doing the blessing in Koty. The part about the cross helping in everyday life stuck with me too, especially when things feel heavy at work. Glad the locals turned up.
