Belgrade- Serbia: Patriarch Porfirije delivered a message of blessing on the occasion of the beginning of the new school year in the country. Divine Liturgy service was served at the Cathedral Church of St. Sava on the 4th of September 2021. In his message, the Patriarch stated ” We need his (Gods) help, above all to stay healthy and happy, to socialize and rejoice every day; but also to overcome all difficulties. I convinced myself, especially as a pupil, that God helped me many times when I had no solutions when I turned to Him in prayer”.

“Everyone needs God, and we turn to Him, our Lord Christ Jesus, to send us the grace of the Holy Spirit to strengthen our spiritual forces as you would successfully complete a class or pass the exams that are ahead of you, and also that your parents, teachers and professors would be proud of you and that you would always be friends with your schoolmates in the lives ahead of you”, concluded the Primate of the Serbian Church.
