3 min. to read

The House Church in honor of Saint Cyril of Turov, located at Zybitskaya, 25A in Upper Town in Minsk, is an important spiritual and educational center of the Minsk Theological Academy. The church was consecrated on June 20, 2015, and has since served as a place for worship services, as well as religious and cultural events. The church building, erected in the first half of the 19th century, harmoniously blends into the architectural ensemble of the district and is a significant part of the religious complex located near the Cathedral of the Descent of the Holy Spirit. The interior decoration of the church is distinguished by its unique murals, and relics of Belarusian saints are stored within its walls. The Church of Cyril of Turov actively participates in the spiritual life of believers. Every year, major church holidays are celebrated here, such as the Bright Resurrection of Christ, with traditional Easter services, a procession, and the blessing of food. The church is also renowned for its services in the Belarusian language, which adds particular significance to its role in the religious life of the local parishioners. A unique feature of the church is the parish art lecture hall, where every Sunday after the liturgy, public lectures on church art are held. The lectures are conducted by Maria Valentinovna Netsvetaeva, Chairwoman of the Synodal Department for Church Art, Architecture, and Restoration of the Belarusian Orthodox Church. These educational programs contribute to the spiritual development of parishioners and students of the Minsk Theological Academy, deepening their knowledge in the field of Christian art and church history. The Church of Saint Cyril of Turov is also adorned with sculptures, including a sculpture of the Apostle John, and is an elegant and well-maintained place that attracts the attention of both locals and tourists.
