the work that vladyka feofan did. shepherd who found the right words and the right deeds, so that you would be received with love, the people who keep the orthodox faith here wanted i would like to wish you god's help success in your pastoral work, and to all the clergy of the tatarstan metropolis. to always be able to answer people's questions, to bring to people the word of god that would be relevant, that would really be perceived by the consciousness and heart of people. sermons that are repetitions of pre-revolutionary texts are not acceptable today. and those who preach like this will never reach human hearts and human minds ; the sermon should carry god's truth in itself and help people in determining their place in in this very complex world today. and the most important thing is to be strengthened in faith and in the consciousness that it is faith that opens the gates of the divine kingdom for a person. may the lord keep you all my dear, and you keep the faith in your hearts live in peace and harmony with you
