Organization Temple then quarantine

Time dictates new rules for absolutely all people, regardless of views and religion. You have to be home, but the moment is near. When will Orthodox churches be opened?. I really want to visit their church people. They know that distance must be observed, but many are not at ease. How will the service go? What can I do to make it right under the law?




Editorial "Site" I will try to explain everything as much as possible. You can go to the temple, but you must follow the rules. First of all, it concerns the distance and mask mode. No one canceled it. Now the Church is answering some of the most important questions.



When Orthodox churches open, how the service will be held in the circumstances - for the abbots it is not easy. The capacity of the temples will not always allow everyone to be inside, and then the distance must be built. It is quite difficult to exclude the movement of people around the temple. Rectors suggest performing the following actions.



  1. Write all the notes at home in advance, in order to take turns to put them on the table, where it is indicated “On health and rest.” Take and lay down the candle that they want, in a certain place to make a donation. The rest will be done by volunteers.
  2. The same volunteers at the entrance to the temple will hand out instructions describing the entire process of visiting the temple, so there is no need to worry about it.
  3. Follow the markings that will be organized in the temple to pass to communion and confession. All markers will be on the floor, this will be stated in the instructions. In no case should you crowd and inevitably push into the temple.




In small churches, the abbots hope for parishioners who will follow the rules, form lists for the community. For casual visitors, the temple will be closed. This is likely until all restrictions are removed. The abbots ask you to understand and not be offended, because not every temple has its territory, many entrances are directly from the street.



Larger temples, which have their own territory, will open doors to all who come. If you can not get directly inside, then you can enjoy the service on the street, because many organized broadcast. Here, too, they are confident in their parishioners who will strictly fulfill all the requirements established by law.



Most temples offer masks if someone forgets to take them with them. As for compulsory attendance, many are already used to the fact that the service can be viewed on YouTube. While restrictions are in place, it may make sense to stay at home, especially for moms with children. No one forbids going to the temple.



The advice of the editorial board is “In God, trust, and do not be bad!” We propose to adhere to the same principle. Before visiting the temple, be sure to clarify the nuances. We know that the optimal capacity is determined by the presence of 4 square meters per person, so be sure to keep the distance.



There must be prudence in all matters. If you can’t get into the temple, it’s okay. All the time. Don't take any offense, but wait for the time When will Orthodox churches be opened? No more restrictions. That time is bound to come. To make it happen, read this prayer with us. And let it be all right!
