Spiritual development
at the International Academic School Odessa
The Odessa International Academic School, being a general educational school with all the necessary academic disciplines, has an important distinguishing feature. The city received an exemplary educational institution focused on the spiritual education of children.
The spiritual beginning is at the base of the school itself, because the educational complex was founded on the site of the family church of Grigory Marazli, the mayor, a well-known philanthropist and public figure of Odessa, who did a lot for the development of culture and enlightenment of our city.
There are two Orthodox churches at the school - John the Theologian and Sergius of Radonezh, the spiritual patrons of young students. The temples were specially built in two architectural styles: the lower temple, in honor of John the Theologian, was built in the early Byzantine tradition, chronologically close to apostolic times, and the upper one, in honor of St. beauty in its various manifestations.

If desired, students can attend electives and listen to lectures on the history of religion, study Christian ethics. Spiritual knowledge is very important for the younger generation.

On October 9, the Day of Remembrance of the Apostle and Evangelist John the Theologian, His Beatitude Metropolitan Onuphry of Kiev and All Ukraine arrived in Odessa on purpose to consecrate the new church of St. John the Theologian at the Odessa International Academic School, and the educational complex itself with a total area of 22 thousand square meters. m. For Orthodox Odessa, this event has become a truly real holiday, because Orthodox Christians do not start a single business without the blessing of God. And this is especially important if we are talking about a school in which the foundation of personality is laid.
At the temples there is a Sunday school for little children from Odessa. Anyone can sign up by phone number - 798-95-24.
