  • The spiritual and educational exhibition-fair “Pakroўski Kirmash” will open its doors on October 7, on the eve of Mother’s Day, which is timed to coincide with the Feast of the Intercession of the Blessed Virgin Mary. This forum, organized by the Belarusian Orthodox Church and the exhibition society "Expoforum" and which has already become traditional, will be held in the capital's Palace of Art on the street. Kozlova, 3.

    The Feast of the Intercession of the Blessed Virgin Mary is one of the most beloved among Belarusians. The Most Pure One has long been considered the caring patroness of those suffering in need of help, especially women, and the intercessor of children and girls. The peculiarity of the current exhibition is that it was organized during the celebration of the 400th anniversary of the appearance of the Krupetskaya Icon of the Mother of God. According to legend, she appeared at a spring near the village of Kruptsy, then located not far from Minsk, on the Day of the Intercession of the Mother of God 400 years ago. The icon was painted on a cypress board measuring 71 by 53 centimeters. As a sign of the great event, a chapel was built here in 1612, then - wooden church. And they consecrated it in honor of the Intercession Mother of God. A list of the icon will be on the exhibition stand, and everyone will be able to bow and venerate it.
