Doukhobors gathered in Grand Forks and Brilliant for the 75th Union of Spiritual Communities of Christ Annual Union of Youth Festival over the Victoria Day weekend. The event’s theme was “75 Years of Coming Together in Peace, Brotherhood and Song.”
While the event was originally founded to showcase programs from Doukhobor youth, it has grown over the years into an event for all ages featuring traditional Moleniye services, choral performances and group singing.
