Abstract

The article is dedicated to the history of the service of priests and sisters of mercy to wounded soldiers in the Moscow Military Hospital (now the Main Military Clinical Hospital named after Academician N. N. Burdenko), where a prayer service for the Russian army started taking place since 1707 in the first private chapel. It also presents the facts concerning the restoration of the history of work and the closing of hospital churches and chapels, about the revival of the centuries-old traditions of the joint merciful service of a doctor and a priest in the name of the spiritual and physical healing of the defenders of the Fatherland on the basis of archival documents.
