Summary/Abstract: The article presents the history of creation and publication of “Obikhod” (of church music singing). It was one of the most famous monuments of Polesie culture during the Second Polish Republic. The collection was prepared in Pinsk by the Orthodox Polesie Diocesan Missionary Committee at the end of 1920 s. This voluminous liturgical collection has become a unique phenomenon in the entire history of the Eastern Orthodox literature in the 20th century. The third part of “Obikhod” contained songs worshiping God (Bogoglasnik), folk paraliturgical hymns that immediately after publication were copied and distributed among the believers not only in the local diocese, but also far beyond its borders. A special role in the dissemination of the texts of “Obikhod” in Western Europe and Germany in particular, belongs to Holy Onufrievsky Yablochinsky Monastery, which looks after one of its most complete and well-preserved copies.
