Даугавпилс-Малиновка 2016

With the blessing of Bishop Alexander of Daugavpils and Rēzekne, a procession with the cross took place in the Daugavpils region at the end of July. It began with a service at the Boris and Gleb Cathedral in Daugavpils and ended in the village of Malinovka, home to the old Ilyinskaya Church, and a new one is under construction nearby. It is gratifying to note that the second procession, nearly 18 kilometers long, was attended by youth and parishioners from all the city's churches, as well as priests: Priest Alexander Yukimovich, rector of the Malinovka Parish; Priest Dionisy Goryunov, rector of the Daugavpils Assumption Parish; Priest Foma Shiklov, cleric of the Daugavpils Cathedral; and guests from the Riga Diocese.
