Town and church holidays
On this day, the Orthodox Church honors the memory of St. Cyril of Alexandria, Archbishop and St. Cyril of Beloezersky, hegumen, who is revered as one of the fathers of the church.
The Roman authorities condemned Cyril’s behavior, but the monks of the Nitrian desert came to his defense. The firm and fiery character of the Patriarch of Alexandria was especially evident during the struggle against the heresy of Archbishop Nestorius, which angered the entire church community. The saint died in 444. After him, many works survived, most of them containing interpretations of the Bible and a system of dogmas.
Traditions and rituals
It is the longest day of the year.
The time of sunshine will come. They say that the sun gives its power to the earth to make it easier for him. However, so that the heavenly body does not burn the harvest with its abundant rays, Kirillov spends a day with various rituals to appease the sun.
