Archimandrite Faddeus Cherednichenko Biography

Add a comment photo of the author. We drive into Istrut - here is quiet and deserted. And it seems that only in the monastery there is life. A smoke from the pipe curls over the refectory, one of the workers cleans the path to it from the snow. At a distance, a bird is heard, it is another of the inhabitants of the monastery. Now six fraternities constantly live here and the inhabitant of the monastery hieromonk Tihik.

With Archimandrite Faddeus, the rector of the arrival in Berdyash, today he also acts as the governor of the Holy Voskresensky Monastery, we meet at the walls of the temple. In the monastery, we were two years ago even with the rector of Sergius, he began ascetic activities in the revival of the monastery, today his undertakings continue here. We enter through the side entrance, the main one is fenced off.

In the Big Ascension Church, the walls are plastered even under the previous rector. Last year, the bell tower was raised here the upper tier was restored, a roof was made, a dome and a cross were installed on it, they were made by masters in Trekhgornoye, and two large bells were also raised to the bell tower. Last summer, the temple was whitewashed on the outside, Satkin’s entrepreneurs and parishioners from Berdyush helped in this.

Then make an altar, hang icons so that you can carry out services. While services are held in another room, in a one -story wooden building. They help to decorate the temple for the holiday, by Christmas, they built a route. I serve in Zlatoust, from there there are also parishioners. Sometimes the regent of the church choir Olga arrives, sings here on the choir. But there are no locals, in Istruti, mostly summer residents, only workers come from Satka here.

We looked into the refectory. Inside, construction work is also going on, put a partition to separate the refectory from the kitchen, it will become more spacious and lighter. In the meantime, everything is nearby - a large table, stove, halls. On the door, the schedule of the day: immediately after lunch, obedience, work is enough in winter. Today it is necessary to cut the firewood, one of the permanent philanthropists, an entrepreneur from Kuvash, has brought them the other day, he helps the monastery building materials.

I am interested in the interlocutor if he was in the monastery until his appointment. There were people who are resistant to life difficulties and strong in spirit. They say that at this place there was a burial of the fraternity near the temple. We want to enclose it, plant trees and flowers. He also talks about what one building would like to build for the brethren is more economical.
