Near the walls of the Holy Dormition Cathedral of the monastery a makeshift stage was built for the young artists' performances. This year more that 150 participants were involved, performing for orphan children, handicapped children, and pupils of the Sunday schools of Kyiv and the region.

The hierarch presented one of the holiday organizers, the president of the international charitable foundation Soniashnyk Alla Horbunova, with the order of the Pochayiv Icon of the Mother of God, and distributed presents – souvenirs and sweets – to the children.
