For the first time, a meeting in the format of a “Bible Breakfast” was held in Ulyanovsktranslated

On September 1, the first meeting in the “Bible Breakfast” format was held at the “Warm Cat” cat cafe as part of the Patriarchal Bible study program. Together with the head of the missionary department of the Simbirsk diocese, the rector of the Church of the Holy Spirit, Priest Vladimir Manyakov, and the organizer of the “Biblical breakfasts” in the city of Dimitrovgrad, Melekess diocese, Kirill Vikhlyaev, the meeting participants discussed the topic “Loneliness.”

The priest and the meeting participants discussed together passages from the Holy Scriptures on the stated topic. The result of a lively and interesting discussion was the conclusion that a Christian is never alone, even if he is alone. And if he is still lonely, then this condition must be overcome by the action of love towards another person.

— Many thanks for the meeting! What supported me most was the idea that emptiness is not an absence, but a space for meeting God and understanding one’s calling,” shared meeting participant Alexander Kasyanov. “That’s exactly what I needed to hear right now.” Thank you for talking about complex things carefully and deeply. May the Lord bless your work! Special thanks to Father Vladimir. I love listening to his sermons. Thank God for everything!…
