Grodno hosted solemnly the Czestochowa icon on July 15 and 16. Back 20 kilometers before the city motorcyclists from Grodno motorcycling club, "Rhinoceros" waited for her. It was really something new. The participation and enthusiasm of these young men and women on bikes were moving.

Everyone wanted to attach a flag with the slogan against abortion. Unfortunately we run out of them. From distance however one could see the convoy, colorful flags and everyone understood what was going on.

Arousing great interest and applause, the escorts of 18 motorcycles with pro-life flags, drove through the streets of Grodno with Our Lady. Accompanied by ringing church bells the icon came to the Orthodox Cathedral of God’s Care (Svjato Pokrovskij Katedralnyj Sobor), since she is currently the guest of Orthodox Church in Belarus. After the  prayer a beautiful and moving exhibition on the protection of unborn life and traditional family values was opened.

Pilgrimage participants visited the municipal family gathering club "Rebirth", which unites families that opt for having many children.
