Yekaterinburg Prayers for Peace and Harmony

Yekaterinburg, Russia - A gathering to pray for peace and harmony took place in Yekaterinburg on March 13, 2011. On the Ural UPF’s invitation, it was attended by followers of different religions and spiritual movements. No doubt, religious people desire for the happiness and well-being of all the people and pray about it constantly. Once a month they get together beyond their congregations to multiply good energy and show an example of friendliness and cooperation to all who have not yet found the way to the peacemaking dialogue.
Not all of them feel comfortable participating in group prayer, but these are valuable opportunities for people to overcome their reluctance and the separation between groups, opening the way the spiritual growth of all the participants.
The initiators express their gratitude to all who participated in the prayer, the Interclub “Sodruzhestvo” and Alexei Patrakov personally, who provided accommodations for the meeting.
