New Martyrs: the Salt of the Earth of the Bitter Pill for State Ideology?:

Churches of Belarus: one against another:
In Belarus the relations between churches and the state are not determined by any isolated step but follow from a quite clear logic of the existent political regime. It is this regime that has given birth to a new wording of the Liberty of Conscience and Religious Organizations Law 2002 and, on the whole, created a conception of the state’s religious policy.

Paralysis of youth movement:
This year two annual events of Youth Association of Belarusian Orthodox Church – Orthodox youth meeting which was supposed to be held on the June 24-26th in Akolica hosted by military parish dedicated to John the Warrior, as well as Cross procession around Minsk-city which was to be held on the July 15-24th – were cancelled. What was the reason – the crisis of the organization, organizational carelessness of the responsible for the event people, relationships with church hierarchy or the position of state authorities?

Where, then, i s the Church?:
This was the question – a difficult and existential one – which we were reflecting on with some friends, during a discussion about the many problems the Church faces today, all over the world. Our involvement in Syndesmos offers us the possibility to meet people from many different places and backgrounds and to hear about the situation of their local communities. From all around comes one and the same concern: the Body of Christ is ill, most members fail to be a witness to love and unity, as commanded by Jesus Christ.

The Myrrh-weeping in Dzierhynsk continues:
These events seem to be perceived in two ways, one being that events as grace coming from God, as the healings seem to confirm, or a call from God to have all come to repentance.The official position that has been stated seems to be odd in its nature, mainly by the lack of information being released.

Dzierzhynsk. Let every human being keep silence:
This little town with hard name (in honour of Felix Dzierzhinsky, who was after the October revolution became the founder and developer of Secret Police Service), some 30 km (21 miles) from Minsk has recently attracted the attention of the entire Orthodox world. At the end of January in local parish church of the Protection of Theotokos, suddenly the icons have started weeping.

The religious situation in Belarus:
In Belarus, by January of this year, 1315 Orthodox communities (1092temples), on the second place Protestants- 983 among which only Pentacosts - 482, bypassed on this parameter the second on "historicity" Catholic Church (433 communities) are registered.

At the Royal Doors:
The Royal Doors is only occasionally open for us... But it's open, and it reminds us, that nevertheless the Lord is among us, that nevertheless there is the Church, seen or invisible, collected or absent-minded, but she is and testifies to the Lord. If this not so our life is vain.
