After the sacramental verse, Dmitry Vasiliev, a first-year Master's student, delivered a sermon:<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Unfortunately, there is always a lot of grief and tears in the world. There are many separated, orphaned and widowed people around us. Life calls each of us to cry with those who weep, to sympathize the sufferers, to help the ones in need. If, for example, you give away your coat that you do not need any more, you can possibly warm a man. If you invite someone for tea and listen to him, you comfort him and relief his stress. Doing such things, we provide the divine power to this world. So, our souls soften and become kindred to the Heavenly Father and Mother.<\/em><\/p><\/blockquote>\n\n\n\n
