80TH ANNIVERSARY OF THE MARTYRDOM OF OUR SISTERS OF NOVOGRODEK

In Novogrodek, preparations for the 80th anniversary of the martyrdom of our Sisters had been underway for several days. July 29 was the solemn introduction of the relics of our Sisters to the Parish Church of St. Michael the Archangel in Novogrodek, in addition to which paintings of the Martyrs were consecrated..

On July 31, at 6 p.m., a solemn Mass was held at the place of execution in the forest with the participation of numerous pilgrims from all over Belarus, and at 9 p.m. an all-night vigil began at the Church of the Transfiguration of the Lord, where the Blessed Sisters prayed and worked. The cult of our Martyrs is growing more and more in Belarus, with many parishes asking for relics of our Sisters to pray through their intercession. Their generous sacrifice of life amazes and inspires, and gives courage to face the adversities of life, to accept with love and without complaint anything we experience every day. Pilgrims and Sisters pray particularly for families and peace in the world.

Blessed Martyred Sisters of Novogrodek, pray for us!
