Here, near the site of Pazeraevka village, Doukhobors who had come from Russia, and their descendants, gathered over the decades to celebrate ‘Petrov Dien’ or Peter’s Day on June 29th each year. Doukhobor values, underscored by the motto ‘TOIL AND PEACEFUL LIFE,’ were emphasized and reinforced. The communal gathering drew people from miles around and was marked by singing, speeches, and good fellowship.
