Brethren of the Kiev Pechersk Lavra and the organization "Father's House" have enjoyed close bonds and friendship for more than 20 years.

Children grow up, go into adulthood and in their place come the very young. And everyone we treat warm-heartedly, find words of comfort and support, as well as goodies for the small ones", they said in the press-service of the monastery.
The children prepared a small performance for Metropolitan Paul. Bishop thanked for congratulations and especially noted the beautiful embroidered shirts.
