Hearts in Harmony: A May Day of Love, Art, and Giving in Munich with Anna Stukkert, Klara Pecherskaya, Tatyana Sazonova, Lyudmila Sipilina

On May 1st, while much of the world marked the arrival of spring and celebrated unity, a remarkable gathering in Munich added deeper meaning to the day. Now in its fourth year, the charitable initiative Teplyi Dom by Anya, founded by Anna Stukkert, once again brought warmth, creativity, and community to the city’s seniors.

This year’s event, supported by the dedicated team of Klara Pecherskaya, Tatyana Sazonova, and Lyudmila Sipilina, offered far more than a seasonal celebration — it became a testament to the transformative power of love and human connection.

A highlight of the day was the emotional premiere of the original play Hallelujah of Love, written and directed by Tatyana Sazonova of Odesa. The story follows a dramatic and symbolic journey from darkness to light, as evil is ultimately redeemed by love. The cast, led by Gencho Todorov as Satan and Nadezhda Kravchenko as Love, delivered a powerful performance that moved the audience to tears. The moment when the Angel, portrayed by Aurelia Todorova, hands Satan a red heart painting and transforms him into a beautiful human, set to the stirring aria from Juno and Avos, became the emotional centerpiece of the event.

Singers Anna Derevianko and Anna Brandt also acted as wonderful volunteers.

The celebration extended beyond the stage. Guests enjoyed an afternoon of grilled food, live music, poetry, and dancing. One unforgettable moment came from Alexandra Zalevskaya, who performed an inspiring wheelchair dance titled Keep Going and Never Give Up, showing incredible spirit and strength.

This year also marked a new milestone: for the first time, the seniors themselves led a fundraising effort to support Ukrainian orphans. This act of kindness — elders reaching across generations to help the youngest — captured the heart of the event’s mission.

Teplyi Dom by Anya continues to be a haven for warmth, unity, and compassion. Open to all who believe in the healing power of kindness, this community is a living example of how love can bring light to even the darkest times.

And as the organizers remind us:
This is only the beginning.
