He lived through the most difficult period for the country, in the mountains and frost, among the refugees from Abkhazia.<br \/>\nLater, his parents moved to Kutaisi with the young Nugzar. He studied at Kutaisi Experimental School No. 19, then at Experimental School No. 1.<br \/>\nHe studied humanities with special love. He had an amazing imagination and his soul was close to nature.<br \/>\nHe wrote sketches and stories. In 2006, his collection of sketches, \u201cThe Hymn of Life,\u201d was published, where he conveyed the world and feelings he saw with his own eyes.<br \/>\nHe began his church life at the age of 10. He was distinguished by his love for God and neighbor, and his peace.<br \/>\n The desire to live a monastic life was sparked in a 10-11 year old teenager by his closeness to a wonderful monk. <\/p>\n<p>In 2010, the most difficult period for him began. Unbearable pain.<br \/>\nHe suffered silently for a year and a half. For 8 months, he remained motionless on his bed, praising and thanking the Lord, and praying to the Mother of God.<br \/>\n Within a few months, with the blessing of the Patriarch, the already obedient Nicholas realized his childhood dream of becoming a monk.<br \/>\n Despite the pain, his actions and words were always comforting. Those who came to him felt at ease. He himself, and at his own request, his parents, began to care for children and adolescents suffering from malignant tumors who were being treated at the oncology center at that time. <\/p>\n<p>On April 13, 2011, with the blessing of His Holiness and Beatitude Catholicos Patriarch Ilia II, the priest-nun Shalva Shengelia of the Martkopi \u201cDivine\u201d monastery ordained her as a nun and gave her the name Andrew.<\/p>\n<p>With the Lord&#8217;s help, through continuous prayer, without murmuring, and with humility, he endured everything. By the Lord&#8217;s will, he left this world when he convinced his parents of the greatness of the Lord, taught them to pray correctly, and prepared them to carry their only son&#8217;s body to the earth and not fall into despair, not to stumble his soul. For the sake of his soul, he asked them to never stop caring for children and adolescents suffering from malignant tumors. <\/p>\n<p>On July 28, 2011, a special day for him, Kvirikoba, he asked his mother for forgiveness, told her about his approaching death, and asked her to kneel down and bow to the Mother of God with a prayer of thanksgiving as soon as his soul departed&#8230; and within a few hours his immortal soul ascended to the Lord.<\/p>\n<p>He was kind from a young age, never stinting on helping the needy\u2026 \u201cTime will pass and I will grow up, I will grow up and I will definitely help the poor, I will help the homeless, I will help the unfortunate. Maybe I can really do this, maybe\u2026 and I will ease my pain\u201d These are his words, written at the age of 12. As a testament to his parents, he promised to take care of children and adolescents suffering from malignant diseases.  <\/p>\n<p>The loss of their only child is a burden for his parents, who care for more than 800 children and their families. They are fulfilling their son&#8217;s will with all their heart &#8211; the &#8220;Beri Andrias Foundation&#8221; is a continuation of the life of Beri Andrias. Children suffering from malignant tumors feel safe in his &#8220;Happy House&#8221;. After all, the &#8220;Happy House&#8221; is tailored to them, taking into account their wishes! Here, they selflessly and selflessly care for their health, education, entertainment and recreation.<br \/>\nWe manage all of the above through your support, our donors, as well as through our tireless work.[\/vc_column_text][\/vc_column][\/vc_row][vc_row][vc_column width=&#8221;1\/6&#8243;][\/vc_column][vc_column width=&#8221;2\/3&#8243;][vc_video link=&#8221;https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/watch?v=EUwOq95l9Fw&#8221;
