The Great Lent which has just started for the Orthodox Christians (and we remember that Orthodoxy is still the main religion in Russia). The fasting time is not only 'strange food without delicious things'. Indeed, the idea is not in gastronomical problems and how not to die from hunder, it is first of all the matter of spiritual sense. It is time, when people should be kinder and more attentive to each other, to what happens in your own heart. Time to help others, time to do someone good. As one of the famous Russian saints used to say, 'the problem is not WHAT you eat, the main thing is not to eat PEOPLE'.
So if you want to become more Russian, together with us let's try to learn to be more helpful. During all fasting time we will inform you about different needs of different people who ask for help. If you would like to help and do some charity things, just ... just do it) Hurry on to do good things ((c) Friedrich Haass)
Good night!
