Description
The construction of the church in honor of the Cathedral of All Belarusian Saints in Grodno began in 2002. Even then, divine services were held at the construction site: at first they were held in a specially installed trailer, and since 2005 – in the lower church, which was located in a semi-basement.
To date, the temple is fully completed. The parish is actively engaged in pilgrimage and spiritual and educational activities. There is a Sunday school here, which has increased significantly in recent years.: Today it has about 300 students, and the staff of teachers has grown to 10 people. In 2007, a Children's choir was organized at the parish of Sunday School students and graduates.

Grodno. Church of the Cathedral of All Belarusian Saints
The Church of the Cathedral of All Belarusian Saints in Grodno began its history in 1994, when the Orthodox parish of the same name was registered. However, the construction of the temple itself began much later, in 2002, according to the project of the talented architect Nina Yemelyanova.
The Vishnevets microdistrict, which played an important and tragic role during the Great Patriotic War, was chosen as the place for the construction of the temple. Terrible and bloody battles took place here, first in 1941 and then in 1943, which claimed thousands of human lives.
In 2005, the lower church, dedicated to St. Gabriel of Bialystok, was consecrated, and on November 7, 2011, the upper church was consecrated. The Church of the Cathedral of All Belarusian Saints is made in a retrospective Russian style, and its interior is decorated with a magnificent carved iconostasis. The temple complex also includes several outbuildings.
Since 2005, the Brotherhood in honor of St. Seraphim Zhirovitsky has been operating at the temple. The confessor of this fraternity is the rector of the church, Archpriest Anatoly Nenartovich. The members of the Brotherhood, young people of the Orthodox faith over the age of 18, are actively engaged in spiritual development and charitable activities. Their number changes periodically, but it always remains in the range of 15-25 people.
