A pleasant bright temple in the real heart of Tbilisi - the old district of Chugureti.
I visited the service and the grave of Vitaly's father.
Kind parishioners.
A good church bookstore. I bought the life of St. Shio, Mgvim wonderworker, patron saint of Georgia.
Even if the temple is not very big, there are always a lot of people there. There are a lot of priests, the services are not fast. Personally, it was very difficult for me to stand at the service because of the poor singing of the choir. They sing in a variety of ways, the regent often shouts at his choir and the whole temple listens to it. The fathers are very different. Some priests may not allow two people to Communion, because they just don't know you.
A holy place! Holy Trinity, our God, Glory to You!
The Lord showed me what awaits me in the coming hours: a woman approached me who needed to call Nonna, she was waiting for a car to pick her up from the church; the same tedious wait was ahead for me in the coming hours.
She left there in a bad mood. Since childhood, I have been going to temples, regularly confess and receive communion, and while in Tbilisi I decided to go to this temple to confess and receive communion. But the priest did not allow me to go to confession for a long time, although I was at the front of the queue, he called others to him, but ignored me, and only after all he allowed me to go to confession. I confessed, but he did not even read a prayer of permission over me and did not put on a stole and did not allow me to receive Communion! I'm not a murderer or a thief, and everyone has sins - that's why we go to church, but after such an attitude, I won't go to this church anymore.
A beautiful temple and a wonderful Russian father Fr. Vladimir!! God bless all the clergy and parishioners!, and there are different types of churchgoers too...
The services are in Russian, there are always a lot of visitors

+ A very Holy Place, but who captured It? Like everywhere else around the world, and here are the disgusting Jewish muzzles that have learned to wear the Holy Cross.Crosses.+
