Patriarchal Metochion of the Temples of the Nikolo-Perervinsky Monastery

A quiet monastery, which has been known to parishioners since the Battle of Kulikovo. She was loved precisely for the surrounding beauty, from where forty forty Moscow churches were opened. As an island for the soul, it originated on the banks of the Moscow River.

From history: the prophecy of the metropolitan and the formation of the monastery

The farmstead took its name from the area "Pererva". Previously, it was the Church of St. Nicholas the Wonderworker. Many ministers gave prayers to her. Despite the name, once the Metropolitan of Moscow Platon said: "Do not shy away, Interrupt your name, for you will not be interrupted, go ahead and improve."

To this day, it has retained its true purpose and is developing. History does not know the facts of the exact origin. There are opinions that it was destroyed in difficult times and rebuilt anew, like many other cloisters. However, it was possible to preserve the spirit of appeasement and prayer for centuries. Over time, a seminary was founded, which was called Platonovskaya and was for 40 years. It was changed by Moscow, which is now in the Trinity Sergius Lavra and took its beginnings in this monastery.

Home today

Today, this place also remains in the hearts of her admirers. Pilgrims from all over come here to find their destination, to get answers to their most pressing questions. There is a Sunday school that transfers knowledge to the younger generation, the guys are happy to learn from their confessors and mentors.

There is also a youth movement. They help in holding events of spiritual and moral education, attract young people and promote the spiritual abode in secular society. The movement was called "Derzhava". Interviews for adults are organized. This is a real center of spiritual growth for everyone. Orthodox theater "Lampada" holds demonstration performances with the blessing of mentors.

Not so long ago, Deacon Sergius became the director of the monastery's festive choir. The presentation of the new program took place in 2019. The ideological inspirer was the servant of God Alexander, the chorister of the Moscow choir. The initiative group is ready not only to stand on the kliros, but also to carry out a creative good deed. Instead of 6-7 people, there were about 20 people in the choir. And this is also a real miracle of God.

The team preaches the Lavrov school of choral singing from the time of Father Matthew Mormyl. The regent, along with individual soloists, absorbed his experience. And each of them is close to the Lavra, which has a special spirit. This is a special program that pleases Muscovites and guests with the works of Chesnokov, Rachmaninov, and also bears the origins of Znamenny singing. The missionary task brings for all parishioners and guests not only a spiritual beginning, but also a true blessing.

The Patriarchal Compound has carried its good word through the centuries and is the center of attraction for people for spiritual enlightenment.
