On
May
9,
I
visited
the
Temple
with
one
feeling:
complete
indifference
and
rude
treatment
from
the
seller
for
Irina’s
candle
box.
The
large
lamp
near
the
miraculous
icon
barely
glowed,
so
that
it
was
impossible
to
see
whether
the
fire
was
burning
in
it
or
not.
To
the
question
why
the
lamp
at
the
miraculous
icon
of
the
Mother
of
God
does
not
light,
the
answer
is:
other
icons
do
not
light
either,
which
means
it
is
not
necessary.
Yes,
the
other
shrines
of
this
temple
were
also
gloomy.
One
person
on
duty
at
the
temple
was
also
silent.
I
had
to
contact
the
dean
of
the
church,
Father
Gelasius,
and
wait
outside
until
he
could
be
seen,
because...
The
temple
worker
said
to
contact
him
or
the
rector
with
these
questions..
But
after
waiting,
there
was
no
answer:
the
dean
ran
past
so
quickly
so
as
not
to
hear
or
see
anyone,
that
he
had
to
ask
the
question
only
to
the
back
of
the
person
running
away,
to
which
he
waved
his
hand
in
the
direction
of
the
temple
and
briefly
pointed
to
the
workers
of
the
hoam,
and
they
-
to
him
.
Strange
arrangements?!
In
a
regular
market,
they
will
answer
more
delicately.
In
the
temple,
where
the
lamps
at
the
shrines
are
not
even
lit,
they
are
only
lit
during
services,
it
becomes
terribly
empty.
And
it’s
sad
because
there
is
not
a
soul
in
it
to
whom
one
could
turn.
I
would
like
those
who
are
entrusted
with
maintaining
the
rules
and
church
decorum
not
to
disappear
like
smoke,
but
to
treat
people
more
decently.
And,
most
importantly,
the
lamp
of
the
Mother
of
God
was
lit
so
that
with
one’s
soul
one
could
pray
before
Her
and
before
the
relics
of
St.
In
the
meantime,
you
performed
your
priestly
duty
perfectly.
Happy
Victory
Day,
brothers!
