From early in the morning, people of all ages flock to the church, forming queues and patiently waiting their turn to embrace the holy relic and receive its blessing. The attendance of the faithful is particularly large, with the atmosphere permeating with rapture, prayer and emotion.

The coming of the Holy Calamous from the Holy Great Monastery of Vatopedi is a special spiritual event for the parish of Triandria, but also for the whole of Thessaloniki, giving the faithful the opportunity to worship a sacred relic connected to the Orthodox tradition and the spiritual heritage of Mount Athos.
