The Day of the Orthodox Book

2024-03-14

March 14 is celebrated in Belarus as the Day of the Orthodox Book.

Books are a great gift from above; they are the most important element of history and culture and a great factor of the Orthodox mission. The decision to celebrate the Day of the Orthodox Book was taken based on these principles.

A presentation of a facsimile edition of the Zhukhovichi Gospel of the 16th century will take place on March 14, 2024 at 3 p.m. in the Grodno Regional Scientific Library named after E.F. Karsky. The printed version of the facsimile edition of the 16th century Zhukhovichi Gospel was prepared in an edition of 99 copies with all the features of the original.
