In the village of Svetloe Ozero, the celebration of the feast day of the Kazan Icon of the Mother of God took place.

      The feast day in the village of Svetloe Ozero is being celebrated for the 28th time.

       Round dances, folk songs... In the village of Svetloe Ozero, the feast day of the Kazan Icon of the Mother of God is an event that is not only spiritual but also familial. For the local residents, this day has long become a symbol of unity, when several generations come together. In Russia, the Kazan feast was associated with the beginning of winter and the completion of the main agricultural work. On this day, it was customary to hold festive feasts and celebrate weddings. Once, this tradition was followed by Mikhail Vavilov, who has been living in harmony with his wife for more than half a century. Today, believers turn to the image of the Kazan Mother of God with their most cherished requests. They pray for intercession, for the health of loved ones, and for peace in their homes. But a special request is raised today for those who stand guard at the borders of our Motherland.

       In the village, significant work is being done to assist participants in the special military operation. It is here, in the rear, that women's hands work wonders. At the celebration, volunteers who weave nets and collect humanitarian cargo were presented with letters of gratitude.

       The feast day in the village of Svetloe Ozero is being celebrated for the 28th time. And over these years, the main thing here remains unchanged — faith, good neighborliness, and readiness to help.
