The choir under Oksana Shalygina always lifts the service, especially on a day like this. Nice to see the special prayers for creation after the Liturgy – we could really do with that rain they were asking for. Thank you, Vladyka Vincenty.

Good that they mentioned the prayer for creation after the Liturgy. We also had a drought here in August and realized how much rain is needed. Oksana Salighina's dance always gives another grace, as Sofia says.
