A prayer service was held for the holy princes Peter and Fevronia in the Sosnovy Bor churchtranslated

September 16, 2026 · 1 min read

On September 13, on the moving celebration in honor of the transfer of the relics of the holy faithful Prince Peter and Princess Fevronia of Murom, a prayer service for the grant of marriage was held in the Church of the Entry into the Church of the Blessed Virgin Mary in the city of Sosnovoborsk.

The celebration was established in memory of the transfer of the holy relics of saints to the Holy Trinity Convent of the city of Murom in 1992 and takes place on the Sunday before September 19. Unlike the main day of remembrance of saints, which often falls on St. Peter's Fast, the September celebration gives believers an additional opportunity to pray together to the patrons of family and marriage.

During the service, petitions were raised to increase love, strengthen families, preserve marital fidelity, as well as to grant chastity to those who have not yet married and to help those preparing for family life.

Nice that they did this in September, away from Peter's fast. Last year I went to a similar moleben and the prayer for "charminess" to those who are not yet married really touched me, because I know how difficult it is to find the right person today. Hope it helped some from Sosnovoborsk too.
