Mgarsky Spaso-Preobrazhensky Monastery

Lubensky Spaso-Preobrazhensky Monastery
Ukraine, Poltava
The first hermit monks appeared on the picturesque Mgar mountain above the Sula River as early as the 10th century. The Spaso-Preobrazhensky Monastery itself was founded here at the beginning of the 17th century by the monk of the Kiev-Pechersk Lavra Isaiah Kopinsky, who did a lot to preserve Orthodoxy in Ukraine. Now these places are considered prayerful by believers, so the flow of pilgrims never dries up. Now, at the Mgarsky Monastery, the construction of a hotel for tourists is actively underway.

I got acquainted with the Mharsky monastery during my vacation in Mirgorod, from where regular excursions are organized. The monastery stands on a high hill and is visible from afar. For believing pilgrims, a guest house was built at the monastery, there is a dining room. After the service, parishioners are treated to lunch and Cossack tea. The service is held with a large gathering of parishioners, the images of saints on the walls and the iconostasis are fascinating. After the service, everyone can take communion and confess.

On May 7, we went on an excursion tour "Mgarsky Monastery - Poltava". The trip started early in the morning, so we arrived in Poltava when there were few people on the street. The city is small but very cozy. There are a lot of lilacs on the streets, the smell is overwhelming. We stayed in Poltava for about 2 hours, and then we moved to Lubny. Mgarsky monastery is small, it is quiet and calm there. The monk gave us a tour of the territory, told us about the shrines of the monastery. Then we went on our own to the Skit, located 400 meters from the monastery.
