Accounted for 14 people, five of them Canadians. We were very pleased all. Many previously called up, but one young family from Kelowna, Brad and Lyudmila, was for us a pleasant surprise. True, the communion was only four - my husband, Sasha, I and our children. But it seems people do not understand how to prepare for communion. <br \/> <br \/>\nIt was all very solemn, his father Michael served in Russian and English languages (for Canadian parishioners). Then there was the consecration of the Pasok, cakes, eggs. Many at the service were last back in Russia, but for Canadians it was generally the first time in my life. <br \/> <br \/>\nGuests brought refreshments and a table just bursting with goodies. The hungry one of us is gone. Began to disperse about three, and some guests stayed for dinner. <br \/> <br \/>\nFirst time, of course not all uchtesh, but Praise the Lord a start. <br \/> <br \/>\nOn the day, the Lord God bless you all! <\/ P><br \/>\nWe hope to organize regular worship services in our region in the near future. <\/p>\n<p> Tatanya Reshetova <\/ p> <\/p>\n<div class=\"embed-gphotos  wp-caption\"><a href=\"https:\/\/photos.google.com\/share\/AF1QipPxr_HpWsunfkmbpyJPv-iyQlIrTSaN9LOa63mXOFKx-3Cm2ayc_oGhPD6_CDrmcQ?key=TVItajRrTmd5ZFhfVVNLbS11WHFxTDc4MUpWVEhR\" target=\"_blank\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\"    src=\"https:\/\/lh3.googleusercontent.com\/pw\/AP1GczOgYbbuPP0TgfT4axI3Z3-4LpVII96YNVFPcwTucK6Zm9lhlgLnq3q6mvyzHFA8VZMfY7Yq8lbEB1oY3FC8z_TRrBWtGWr-gSdnZGfkO5JbSrRsmUOo=w640-h960\" width=\"640\" height=\"480\"   ><\/a><\/p>\n<p class=\"wp-caption-text\"><a href=\"https:\/\/photos.google.com\/share\/AF1QipPxr_HpWsunfkmbpyJPv-iyQlIrTSaN9LOa63mXOFKx-3Cm2ayc_oGhPD6_CDrmcQ?key=TVItajRrTmd5ZFhfVVNLbS11WHFxTDc4MUpWVEhR\" target=\"_blank\">20110425 Easter in Kelowna \/ Google Photos<\/a><\/p>\n<\/div>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p align=\"center\">EASTER \u2013 HOLY PASCHA Procession.
