Girls Retreat Held in Buchach Eparchy

On August 21, 2010, in the building of Eparchial administration of Buchach eparchy took place a one-day retreat for girls. The theme of the retreat was “Woman in the Holy Scripture.” The retreat was conducted by Mrs. Maria Bilinchuk, Fr. Andrey Lemchuk, and Sister Sofia from the Community of Myrrh-bearing Sisters. They brought special attention to prominent women in the Old and New Testaments, in particular to Eve and the Holy Mother of God. Each of the girls expected to get from something important for herself: whether answers for a question, or directions in life, to improve oneself of perfected and be an example for others. During the retreat the girls had the opportunity to show off their skills by drawing self-portraits and singing with the accompaniment of a guitar.  Therefore, such retreats and meetings are very useful and necessary for our daily lives which are filled with various problems. They are beneficial for the girls who have to understand and execute their mission, to be good wives, mothers, and nuns. Especially to the way which God, not the changing world, wants to see them, as practicing Christians.
