Thank you for writing. It is good that Metropolitan Cornelius himself led the march on such a day. The appearance of the Mother of God in 1919 over Arkhangelsk is always a special memory for us, every year I try to pray about it at least at home.

It’s good that the Metropolitan himself took charge. In the year 19, the Mother of God appeared over Arkhangelsk, this is a strong protection for the city. In Kazan, I always try to be in church that day, but here, I see, everything went well in Arkhangelsk.
