The event was held at the blessing of His Beatitude Metropolitan Volodymyr of Kyiv and All Ukraine. Anniversaries of mother Dimitra (Yegorova), the founder of our monastery. On March 18, 1878 the Venerable Dimitra received from Emperor Alexander II the order for foundation of the religious community dedicated to the Holy Presentation of the Theotokos. On March 22, 1878 she passed onto the Lord while staying on a visit to St. Petersburg concerning the monastery foundation. On August 21, 1878 the body of Mother Dimitra was transferred from St. Petersburg to Kyiv. On November 27, 1878 Metropolitan of Kyiv and Halych Philotheus (Uspenskyi) consecrated the main temple of the Monastery of the Holy Presentation of the Theotokos. Of course, it is not mere occasion. This is the mysterious work of the God's Providence."
