Former Kindergarten Transformed into Children's Temple in Novopolotsk
Novopolotsk Kindergarten to Become Children's Temple A former kindergarten in Novopolotsk, Belarus, is set to undergo a significant transformation, becoming a dedicated children's temple. The announcement was made by Bishop Ignatiy during a recent meeting in Polotsk. This project aims to create a comprehensive religious and educational center for children and families. The new temple will offer a range of activities, including a children's choir, an open altar for services, a Sunday school, music classes, and even a cinema hall. The cinema will show films about the lives and works of priests, providing a unique educational experience. Parents will also benefit from a youth cafe, a designated space for them to relax and socialize. "This project will help raise children in the spirit of traditional values," Bishop Ignatiy stated. The initiative has received the full support of local authorities, who see it as a valuable addition to the community. The conversion of the closed kindergarten into a vibrant center of faith and education represents a positive development for Novopolotsk, offering a unique space for children and families to connect with their faith and community.
