Story
The Old Believers community in Minsk has about two thousand members, mostly emigrants or their descendants from the Vitebsk and Gomel regions. And there is no real temple. Twenty years ago, when every tenth believer professed the old faith, this was not a problem. People would meet for prayers at the home of the nastawnik, Alexander Belov. Now, not everyone who wants to attend the service can fit in. That is why, for six years now, the nastawnik and the church committee have been trying to build a molenna in the capital of Belarus.
