Church parishioners in Mirny of the Arkhangelsk region help lonely old people in a municipal hospital

More than twenty parishioners of the church of Archangel Michael in Mirny work as volunteers in a therapeutic ward of the municipal hospital.

The lonely helpless old people are treated there. The volunteers clean the rooms, feed and wash the patients and – what is more important – talk with them. A volunteer said that if enthusiasm would not fail them, the volunteers would cooperate with the sisterhoods of mercy in Arkhangelsk and Severodvinsk and would have special training.
