It’s good that Vladyka Peter personally came to the Eternal Flame. In our church, many veterans are also commemorated, especially now, when there are fewer and fewer of them left.
And in our parish, the father remembers the veterans at services, especially on May 9. Bishop Petru is doing well to go personally, it is a concrete sign of respect. In Constanța, at the sailors' monument, I also saw fresh flowers last week.
Here in Ruse, every year on May 9, we go with the women from the church to lay flowers on the monument to the Soviet soldiers. Vladiteka Peter is right that he is going personally - so it can be seen that he is not just talking. Elijah, how many veterans do you still have left in the church?
