Children congratulated sisters of the monastery of St. Mary Magdalene in Gethsemane with the feast of Pascha

On May 29, Saturday of the week of the paralytic, the children of the parishioners of the Church of St. Mary Magdalene in Gethsemane congratulated Mother Superior Elisabeth (Smelic) and the sisters of the monastery with the feast of Pascha. 

The children prepared a small concert where songs and poems on the theme of Pascha were performed. The children also baked Easter cakes – kulichi and made homemade personalized postcards for each of the sisters of the convent, and in return received a personalized postcard with a picturesque drawing and the signature of Abbess Elisabeth.

The holiday ended with a game “guess the melody” between a team of adults and children – friendship won!
