There are many beautiful churches in Belarus, both Catholic and Orthodox. The Church of St. Simeon and St. Helena is located in the center of Minsk, near Independence Square. I have repeatedly admired this architectural complex. Beautiful stained glass windows, doors, sculpture of Christ in a niche on the facade of the church. A sculpture of Archangel Michael slaying a dragon, on the pedestal of which are the words "Defenders of God, Faith and Christianity." It is amazing how carefully churches of different faiths are preserved in Belarus - this is the key to the unity of the people. Prosperity, peace, and kindness to the people of Belarus! 🙏🙏🙏💕💕

The territory of the church is clean , there is no garbage . There is a very interesting sculpture nearby and the very view of the red church is located next to all other attractions, be sure to check here along the way. They wanted to go inside, but it was closed

It's a wonderful place and a very beautiful church.
It would probably be worth dwelling on this, if not for one aspect.:
A very significant feature of Belarus is that Orthodox churches peacefully coexist with Catholic ones, while never in history has Orthodoxy banned the Catholic faith, destroyed churches, seized church lands, stolen icons, or persecuted believers (which cannot be said about Catholicism)...
Perhaps that is why Orthodox Christians are the Sons of God.
And Catholics = servants of God...
something like that 🤔
