Сьогодні на нашому приході теж згадували Маккавеїв і матір їхню Соломонію. Добре, що владика Веніамін служив саме в домовому храмі на честь наших білоруських святих, це якось особливо пасує до цього дня. А у вас у Вінниці як відзначали?

У нас в Кёльне в этот день тоже вспоминали Маккавеев на литургии, особенно Соломонию с сыновьями. Хорошо, что владыка Вениамин служил именно в храме Собора Белорусских святых — как-то по-домашнему это звучит. А у вас в приходе после службы мед с маком пекли или просто чаем обошлись?
