    Dear visitors!

    But in order to see the comments under the articles of previous years, the module responsible for the commenting function has been left. Since the module has been saved, you see this message.

    The Feast of the Intercession of the Mother of God for many Minskers was associated with the “Pokrovsky kirmash”, which was held in our city on the eve of an important event for believers. Festival "Joy" - this is the tradition! The very format of the event has changed, the main focus of which is on the educational program.

    The guests of the festival are waiting for a large-scale program for children, a creative space for master classes and an exhibition-fair of products of monasteries and churches from Belarus, Russia, Serbia and Ukraine.

    Numerous events and events of the festival are aimed at showing the people of Minsk what joy communication, prayer, and joint creativity can bring to our souls. Concerts, film screenings, meetings with priests will make each of the festival days special.

    The city-wide creative action "Gift to the city" is called upon to unite residents and guests of the capital. Everyone will be able to take part in the creation of a mosaic panel depicting the coat of arms of Minsk - the icon of the Mother of God "Minskaya".

    By the way, Belarus is the only country where the celebration of Mother's Day is timed to coincide with the feast of the Intercession of the Most Holy Theotokos. On this day, October 14, every mother who visited the exhibition "Joy" is in for a surprise. Another great reason to meet and share the joy of the holiday!

    The venue for the festival "Joy" will be the Palace of Railway Workers (Minsk, Chkalov St., 7). The festival will be open to guests from 11:00 to 20:00.
