maria good afternoon. you are the chairman of the youth fraternity at the holy spirit cathedral. please tell us what he is like our brotherhood. this is an association of young people who love the cathedral fence and who are ready to do some projects together and have a very good time when it was formed. let's talk a little about the history of this brotherhood, it was formed in 2011, and in 2013 received its official registration, so now the full name is religious. the brotherhood is part of this apostle of the theologian in the minsk party of the belarusian orthodox church, that is, we have such a serious legal status and can do a little more good deeds, because if it were just a youth vision, then we have some limited opportunities. or maybe you remember or know how it was. that's when in 2011 who was the initiator. how many

people then started who are these people? where are they now the union of young people who were here in the cathedral, and then the current vladyka anthony, and he was then just a clergy secretary, and it so happened that the guys together held such an initiative and turned to vladyka philaret and vladyka blessed that here in the minsk cathedral organized arabism. after some time, and the guys , along with the current metropolitan lines, were in the theological monastery at the patronal feast. and the lord. this one says, here. present at worship today youth and brotherhood of john the theologian and then there was still no name, and the guys, just at that time, were thinking, what should we be called? well, what hmm what saint to choose and there is already vladyka named. so he is a theologian, and he is a theologian. this was the youngest apostle, out of the 12 apostles of jesus christ, he is also called the apostle of love, so we have

hello, there is a holy apostle about love. well, theologian and how long have you been in this youth movement, how long have you been its leader, the ideological inspirer, the chairman, to be honest, a when i was in school and heard in some youth associations. i was so a little skeptical about them, but when i entered the pedagogical university, i was invited in my first year to a meeting, and here at the cathedral, and this was just said by the meeting of the youth brotherhood, but not anna the theologian. there was another cosmodem and then immediately somehow joined the team, caught fire with this whole idea was very. interestingly, then the two fraternities united. and now this year is 4 years since i am his leader. that was also very unusual, because i did not think that i would become the leader of the fraternity. ying you never to me was some kind of my goal. well, the guys have chosen. we get the brotherhood, it consists of the council of the brotherhood and the general meeting of the brotherhood. this is such a body that manages all the processes so official, and there was a meeting and one of the

candidates they call me i am such a wow this meeting is a council. yes, he how is it determined, how is he chosen, too, by a mediocre vote by the council according to means voting, but it is precisely in the council that the rector necessarily enters without the right to vote. with us, this is vladyka vinyamin, and then the wind instruments enter the brotherhood and the leader of the brotherhood enters. and three members of the fraternity council. these are guys who are just members of the general meeting. here and then here they are such a legislative body. in a sense, it is. but namely, the initial general meeting - this is the fifth, it can be, uh, young people over 18 years old, they can write an application, they must write an application to go through some kind of small probationary period. and after that, to become an official member of the brotherhood, but we have such a serious one as e. well, we still focus more on youth, so we have more volunteers in young people. they are also called brothers. although, as statistics show, there are more

girls. and when they say that she came to us to the brotherhood for the theologian, and there, for 70 percent, the girls are some kind of brotherhood, we are such brothers and girls, we are such strongmen, and you mentioned vladyka. that's how the members of the abbot's council correctly. let's talk about the rest too tell us who these people are. after all, they play a direct role in the formation in the movement, as if in life in the brotherhood and such a spiritual component of our brotherhood is the spirit, and literally since september last year he became a fairly well-known priest, the father of roman artyomov, he is the confessor of the children's hospice, when he became the cleric of our cathedral, he somehow addressed us. we approached him and invited him to a meeting. that's how we got to know each other, and he invited us to his oncology center, where we sang every saturday, communed the divine liturgy there, helped him, and somehow we got along. and here he is in the month of september, our confessor. and why, in principle

, do you need a youth association in a context so slightly separate from the parish from the community, that is, adults do not understand the youth, and i would not say that we come separately from the community. clearly, as an organization. we are a separate organization of my ideal come this one, but the youth. she has a great time interacting with older people. this it may be very important that there be a connection between generations. and we have so periodically, there are some meetings held. and let's say ours, even elderly parishioners say, but we can visit such yes, why not literally this weekend we had it? leska, and in zhirovichi and with us they asked, uh, two women of age, and they were very shy. strange as it may seem, because they say all the young are all like this. energetic we will, maybe, somehow fetter. there is something completely missing, the trip passed, and they, on the contrary, thanked. i think now it is important to explain more. what exactly does the youth brotherhood do? that is, it is not a structure, but a structure. here. uh,

not at all yes, in the parish, but you are active . yes, we have four directions. and, probably, the most important thing is social activity. that is, there is a social cause here, a spiritual moral matter, the introduction of affairs by the information department, but the most active, the most extensive, is a social matter. it consists of our various projects. we visit orphanages. uh, a social institution in the center of medical rehabilitation cancer center, as i said, we conduct various intensives for volunteers. and here is probably the biggest number. then all the participants in this social department of the medical rehabilitation center weekly, our volunteers visit these children, conduct a master class with them and some kind of games for development. well , in this way, that is. uh, if this is about the elderly, then it’s already clear that every grandmother or grandfather is assigned a volunteer who looks after them, there is such an interesting moment that the grandmother

left completely alone. here, literally , such an old woman turned to us and said, maybe you wo n’t find, but some girl who would come at least once a week or there twice a month and just talk there tea drank with me. she just talked and says, i lack communication so much. i can’t leave the house anymore, i can’t go to temples. all my girlfriends are already, as if they are not with me. and it's very difficult for me, he says. maybe you can volunteer this kind of thing too, so we try to help grandmothers too. and here it should be noted that the age of those who, let's say, work like that and perform some kind of er, with duties of the moment. reach even 70 years. our oldest volunteer is 70 years old. and why is it so because, for example, we have such a help project nearby. it's helping lonely elderly people, uh, who find themselves in some kind of difficult situation. this is for which there is no opportunity to care for relatives or, for example, large families. now, if there is a large family, the help of a nanny is needed there, for example, and then it’s clear, a young girl,

or it’s a boy, maybe he even helps like that, but if it’s a recumbent grandmother, a recumbent grandfather, and a young girl or guy, they just psychologically won’t be able to be there, so here our parishioners who are 40-50 and even 70 years old are actively involved what to say about some of our other projects, in general, in our brotherhood, 34 projects are currently being implemented. one of these creative and educational projects. this is a club of foreign languages , its peculiarity is that love is wishing for some small donation. maybe undergo training. we have french serbian and we want belarusian, but it’s not like a foreign language, but many people want to learn it. here but for those who study english there are different levels on sundays twice a month. we have a sunday speaking club and it is run by father oleg , he is a cleric of the elizabethan monastery. and when we weighed the announcement that there is a set in the

language club, he invites the youth of older people. uh, join come some training we have at the end of such a small exam and a small certificate. it is clear that this is not quoted somewhere. but this is some kind of incentive for listeners. so this rear sight told his story, he is a teacher at the department of physics of belarusian state university. and he studied for a long time abroad in europe. that is, he has excellent english. and so he says, let me be of some help to you, but we say, let's make such a speaking club and classes in this aids club are built in this way. and that any uh person who speaks at least english can be very good at english, can speak it fluently, but it will be comfortable for him to be there, why only twice a month? it seems to me that this is still a popular direction, father oleg has a lot of other obedience classes, and he still teaches and it is very difficult for him to combine all this, and here he has already

tried himself on such a volunteer basis, but there is still a peculiarity he invites from the return of carriers language language, they come. here it turns out offline and communicate it's incredible. it's just that recently we even call each other specifically. here were friends. he also has orthodox young people from australia, and english-speaking people, and in this way there is also some kind of dialogue , communication. one more thing i would like to tell you. this is probably one of these new ones, but somehow it went to literally everyone, and this summer school of sign language was formed years ago, it was such a start-up project, according to the department of catechesis of the belarusian orthodox church, it literally lasted 2 weeks, and we talked about people with such. here are the features and volunteers were trained after they were trained, they published a small exam and then participated in our volunteer projects. at the moment, the school was held for the second time in the summer and, in a sense, thanks to this initiative.

literally at christmas, there was a broadcast with a translation into a gesture, that is, a sign language translation, which is very important and there was a lot of gratitude if the interest in such people who had gone through there such a little, even accelerated. more like a course. yes according to sign language translation, and then they have experience of practice somewhere. there are people who came for courses, they are motivated people. and since they took courses in the church, then, clearly, we have an accent church for worship, and at the moment there is a divine service. others are in sign language translation, and in one of the churches in minsk, that is, our volunteers can come there, who are quite good at it. e sign language. they are very active there . and since the fall of this year. we launched such a project for people who are not heard. eh, it turns out that we done. we offered them two options for tours of the minsk temple, such a big

ring and a small ring. and after that we have a meeting. here in the cathedral, everything is in sign language. at first we thought that 10 minutes would come. these well, no matter how interesting it was, it was interesting and people responded very actively. and we also have this. well, let's call it a project of our volunteers recording songs with sign language translation. we are currently running the same project. this is an international christmas competition songs and carols. and so they recorded one of their carols for this competition. in sign language. she broke up with a bang. you laughed so hard in the rings that 70 percent of the brotherhood is girls. and what, when a brother is introduced to me? well, they cause such a light laugh , yes, and what is the difference exactly in the brotherhood why not be called a sisterhood, for example, at the parish of the cathedral? is there a sunday school? i am, uh, the brotherhood and her sisterhood. and they usually have different requests, that is, sunday school. clearly, this is learning.

youth brotherhood well, or just a brotherhood like ours is, uh, some kind of activity of its own. there is electricity. these are more social projects. well, it's very hard to change it all. let’s put it this way, but there’s also a moment why exactly the brotherhood is a youth association, for example, how it happens historically that usually during transitions it is the brotherhood of youth that exists and the church today is generally interesting for young people and how active it is. well, i would not say that there are no youth in the church. on the contrary, she is somewhere it is problematic to interest them, to interest them not just to come to the service. well, as if worship is the most. main. that's why they come, yes, but also to stay and then help, that is, here it already depends on how we are here, well, as an anchor leader or as other leaders, how they will interest this youth and leave it. and after the service , to some kind of meeting, and after the meeting,

perhaps they will be interested in some kind of project, so that they actively help to detain young people there, it’s quite difficult. but as it’s the process of exaggeration that stands, of course , the main site is the cathedral, and the young people who come to worship we involve them in various obediences, for example, to help hold an icon or take care of the candlesticks, look or suggest to one of the parishioners, and then we invite you to stay and invite you to tea. and after that, when we met them, we see how a person reacted or not, reacted and already invite us to join us, that is at first it reaches, and then already we offer some projects, so a lot of guys stay. well, of course, such a platform is also the internet, this is instagram where we always talk about ourselves and make various reposts. we invite young people and thus also attract people. well, all these projects of ours are charity events, when they stood in the shopping center too, how would people see, they are interested in what it is? we have

such a big reboot right now. we complete the charity of the nation. but you we have now completed this competition and are doing a big reboot, that is, we are completely changing the whole approach to ours somehow. uh, well, here's a project that was actively dressed for project activities. but because when people are specifically busy, but if you can, so to speak, and when they feel useful, that they would not just come to sing. yes, they left. and here they are of some help. they then stay. and why are there still more volunteers with the brotherhood than the brothers themselves. here are some administrative moments. they shackle people or whatever it turns out if you are volunteers. i don’t want to come officially , i don’t want to come, or why why ? well, what would be the concept, brother volunteer. it was all the same, but when it came to some serious projects and some kind of responsibility. uh, the efficiency was very low and people, as it were, did not agree, but then they left, and then we looked, well,

how would our brotherhood act according to the charter, and in they left it written that the brother is there, such and such a serious person. there, with such fads, it is clear that we do not take it so seriously. that's completely all on the fads, but brother this person, who is responsible for some of the directions, actively participates in some of the directions, but a volunteer. he is here, maybe only at this event, it happens that here he comes. hmm, we often participate in various organized events. eh, belarusian mazard, a hut this summer. it was for glory and we were looking for youth who will volunteer at these events. and they pressed the youth, not only ours from minsk, but also from other cities in belarus, and they were our one-time volunteers , you have, let's say, such a large base of volunteers. we know we can turn to him. i can't address it to us. we need some help with him, but for the brothers we, of course, have more privileges, these are some trips, because, well, they need to be motivated somehow. and it is also very important when there is some kind of feedback

, but the brotherhood does not work. this some kind of voluntary beginning, yes, which exists outside of working hours. i understand correctly, the brotherhood is probably just a lifestyle. we have such a hashtag all or life brotherhood in baths. and that's just free time. i have an opportunity. there are people with whom these two are interesting, and now you come and are ready to be ready to help. and often students transfer here. and the majority, in principle, are students, and orthodox young people from the regions are usually like this, by the way, there is even a problem, because on vacation they all go home. people they usually go to university. they went to church at home, for example, or often, these are the children of priests. by the way, we also have a very large percentage of children of priests. oddly enough, they united like this with us and they enter the university. absolutely there. well, so vyatka life happens, no matter how difficult, they come to the cathedral. here we are our volunteers, let's join us in the fraternity. help attracts, and they will find out what is here in minsk in the cathedral. there are guys

who are just as cool modern young people. well, they go to church, and then they can come here and do something, as it were . we have the opportunity to find some funding thanks to our projects, and we try to encourage our volunteers and pay for their trips. because if this is a student, not everyone can afford a trip for several days. that's since we have touched so actively the members of the fraternity and volunteers. mostly brothers. let's write such an average portrait of the average participation brotherhood. this is an average of 25-27 years, and most of the girls, of course, there are young people without them anywhere. and this is a working man. yes, that is, he works somewhere, these are doctors. and these are teachers. these are some just creative guys who are engaged in some of their creative projects. we have literally everything, the existence of a brotherhood, 25 families have formed, and the statistics are constantly growing. that's

literally from last year. i have been to eight weddings. and these are the guys who met with us or someone we are somewhere. come on, they got to know each other. and they even have kids. and also how many families there were that i don’t know all of them before me, and how big the movement is, if we talk about projects, and for example, in the theater it’s 15 people. here is the main lineup. uh, docking club and foreign language clubs in general. this is 60 people. and, if we take the members of the general meeting, these are such serious people that it is difficult to get into. there are 20 of them, and here are volunteers who, as it were, exist and don’t have 150 of them and a constant number is growing, or vice versa decreases. it all depends on the activities of the students, that is, the session. it is clear that less walks. and, if summer vacations also go less, it happens, on the contrary , completely new people come to the city. they come to us to meet the world. now full

of challenges. eh, from some kind of self-determination of oneself up to gender to the external political situation, and which most often and most of all affects the youth. how to help a young person who is still looking for his own worldview and so on, and choose everything but your own opinion, and not someone else's and imposed a serious global topic of the problem, it is clear if ecology. we can talk, but we don’t talk about some others, but this is how the meeting is devoted to this situation, for example, we try not to talk, this is because people come to us with different views. we can only by our example, and the example is that the lord is love, and we treat all people well, and we are for some good moments. and therefore it is very important that when people come to us there are no misunderstandings.

people, on the contrary, should feel here, but calmly free and know that on this day there is such a piece of a little corner where you can be with yourself, be without this. here is the influence of the outside. well, yes, i have the same slightly provocative question, because 2020 is a patriotic year for belarus, and young people were actively involved. and moreover, any universities, regardless of their own direction, were somehow involved in this one way or another. yes? that's how the brotherhood managed then. i'll tell you even more. we had it all before our very eyes. because in the center of the city and here there were also many different moments, as our lady called and said, we prayed, but we did not discuss any topics here. it is clear that it was all before our eyes. we saw it all, but we prayed. we tried to keep the peace in ourselves, when you keep the peace in yourself, then people are nearby. they will also feel that you are calm, that you are trying to calmly perceive what is

happening outside, what is happening around. and this calmness in you, it kindles calmness in another person who is he sees and in this way, as if uniting and there are more and more such people and somehow everything calms down. and what exactly is your work, how to preside over the youth fraternity, in honor of theologians? this is very difficult work and very hard work, but at the same time, when you see these couples that are formed as a result of the work that you put into your business in this business. yes, a good deed is inspiring and it makes it possible to do more. and it works for me enough creative. that is, this is the organization of events and some documentation is also on me. how many of us have the brotherhood is still a legal organization, what gives some kind of like for me, when i just go there, well, i

came to the brotherhood with exactly how the leader came for me, it was a small shock that this is a legal organization. and you need to know this, some legal aspects there. uh, volunteer fraternity member. and this is necessarily a believer, or you can be a volunteer, but at the same time, uh, do not visit regularly. temple regularly, do not attend services. that is, i want do a good deed. i want to help people, but i'm not quite ready to be a deeply religious person. yes, he should go to church. yes, he must be a believing christian, take communion, confess and observe all these sacraments. this is written in our charter, but as our practice shows, we are open to everyone and the participants of our volunteers are members of foreign language clubs of various faiths and tolika and protestants, on the contrary, they see how they tell us how they have comfortable topics, so this is very important i don't accidentally say

that representatives of different confessions coexist peacefully in belarus. here's an example and let's tell our viewers. how did you come to vera so it happened that she was born in a religious family. my father is a priest since childhood. i was in the temple. i attended services. i went to sunday school and actively participated in the life of our parish. it is clear that at some point there were difficulties. this is why on saturday evening to go to the service there, when there are still many lessons to be done, but it has become. naturally. and just this is what saturday night sunday morning to the service, just a way of life who is, but will be the daughter, the priest is bound to something. you must understand that, as it were, they look at you a little differently than at everyone else. uh, i went to school, uh, instead of a wheelbarrow. well, in a town not far from minsk and until the thirties. it was poland and there were a lot of catholics there. and they looked at me with such, uh, interest and

watched what i say, how i say, how i behave. and in general, what were my interests, so for me personally, this is nothing renders. here, well here, as though so simply a way of life. here is a misunderstanding, somewhere they were with their parents in something. i didn’t understand some moments there, for some reason there, it’s impossible, it’s impossible there. why post or something like this has always been difficult for me, and then we can post. that's it for all sorts of tasty treats . thank you very much for our conversation. thank you.

what norms are in force today and for what period they are fixed today, the norm is valid, firstly, i want to make a reservation right away that we will be talking about goods of different use, forwarded international postal items, in relation to them today there is a norm of 1,000 euros, as for the self-contained e-e norm and e, 31 kg, respectively, this norm was extended by decisions of the eurasian commission. a-a until the end of march 2023, and in case no changes are made. it will be changed to 200 euros and 31 kg, respectively, except for the cost of the norm and the

weight norm of 31 kg. restriction, er, i mean, certain prohibitions and restrictions on the forwarding of certain categories of goods, and in particular, of course, the main ones are the ban on the transfer of weapons of all its components of narcotic drugs, psychotropic substances, including, e, including in medicines, and there is also a ban on the transfer of alcoholic products, tobacco products, smoking mixtures , potent. er. hmm explosives are a destructive zone, and goods, er, that are quickly spoiled, this is an incomplete list, and all information regarding prohibited and restricted goods is posted on the site the state customs committee, as well as on the website of the national operator cut mail, because e introduced e, these prohibitions are not only possible by law, but also by the laws of the universal postal union . in addition, restrictions

from other regulatory authorities may apply. for example, this is m-m seed products, which are very relevant for shipment by our citizens. vasily spring period. it's also limited by, uh, certain phytosanitary veterinary control regulations. in particular. uh, sending seed data should be accompanied by a phytosanitary certificate. it was previously stated that the norms will be reduced from october 1. why was a decision made to extend the operation of higher elements, and on september 23, the eurasian economic commission on its council made this decision; it was due only to supporting the population in conditions of institutional pressure and avoiding it. e possible shortage of essential goods . well, to which countries do belarusians, for example, most often send parcels and from which countries does it come to us from problems, well priority direction.
