Today, I confessed the prisoners and prayed with them at the prison corps in the Odessa SIZO (remand center).
I was not allowed to bring them to the Prison Chapel,
so I had to serve in an empty and not repaired uninhabited prison chamber.
But I was informed by the prison Governor that in future prisoners can be allowed to Prison Chapel after he gets all the necessary approvals.
These approvals do not completely eliminate the urgent need
of an Orthodox Chapel in every prison building -
the very existence of such a chapel is already a great benefit for every prisoner ...
My next visit to prison - on Monday, then on Tuesday, well, and so on ...
Tomorrow Liturgy in the convict colony of the enhanced regime.
To all patience and love.
