New year, new cards, new posts. 
It has been awhile since I last received officials cards from Belarus, actually, last year I didn't receive any officials from there. 2019 only has 1 week and I already received 2 cards, both from Minsk.

Saints Peter & Paul Cathedral, a baroque Russian Orthodox church, is officially the oldest in Minsk and the only Renaissance building in the city, dating back to 1612. The cathedral is officially listed on the Republic of Belarus' Architectural Monuments of National Importance. Throughout its history the church has been closed several times, including in 1933 when members of the church's clergy were arrested and shot on the spot. After the war the church was also closed for a prolonged period, and was used as an archive of scientific and technical documents. - in: https://www.local-life.com/minsk/articles/churches
