Starobilsk. The Convent of "Joy of All Who Sorrow"

More than once I have heard it said that Donbas had no spiritual life, no feats of ascetics, and that its people are not as pious as in other regions of Ukraine.

The history of the Starobilsk Holy Convent of "Joy of All Who Sorrow" is an example of the unbreakable strength of faith, a testimony to the love and virtue of its founders and inhabitants, of those who "conferred not with flesh and blood".
