Last Updated on Saturday, 04 February 2012 17:25
On September, 11th in the House of the Prayer of our church the Harvest holiday has taken place.
This holiday - is thank to God not only for the physical fruits which have been grown up on fields and gardens, but also for spiritual fruits which the Lord cultivates in our hearts.
The hall has been festively decorated. All fruits which were brought by believers, certainly, couldn't go in on a pyramid, therefore it was necessary to place them on a scene. As an ornament the huge grape brush also has been built. On its manufacturing has left hardly more than 20 kg of grapes.
Presently such brushes any more you will not meet in the nature, but they grew in the earth of Hanaan. When Moses sent 12 persons to look out for the earth of Hanan, those, having come back, "And they told him, and said, We came unto the land whither thou sentest us, and surely it floweth with milk and honey; and this is the fruit of it" (Numbers 13:27). Those fruits, really, were big and tasty.
On celebratory service the small theatrical performance has been shown in which participated both adults and children .
All people glorified Lord with singing together with glorification group. A chorus sang solemnly. The Gospel sermon sounded.
There were visitors from Vyshny Volochek church which also participated in service.
Upon termination of service we coud it those fruits, which the Lord cultivated this year .
In all atmosphere majestic glorification of God reigned. The Lord has sent huge pleasure to our hearts this day. All nature, all products of the earth glorify our Lord, and our praise - only the smallest part of all this glorification.
