I see that the church in Phryna is named Koimiterska, and now the first apostles Peter and Paul are celebrated. Is it because it was built for Koimisis, or is there another reason?

The coimter church in Phryna is named after Assumption, not after a cemetery. The holy apostles Peter and Paul are celebrated there, because it is a great feast for the whole church, as it is in other places.

Yes, that's because the church is next to the cemetery in Phryna, not because it was built for a cemetery. My wife and I used to go there years ago when we were renovating the facade of our house in the neighboring village.

That's right, Athanasius, we know that too. My sister lives in Phryna, and when we went to see her, we noticed that the church was actually next to the cemetery, not because of it. Was your house closer to the church or the road?

I also remember that years ago, when my daughter and I went to the beach next to Phryna, we saw how peaceful this place was with a nice view of the sea. Are the same fish caught in these waters as in Burgas?

Rosice, that's right - the church has been standing there for years, the cemetery is just next to it. Our house was closer to the road, about 200 meters away, so we often walked past it to the evening service. Which part of Phryna does your sister live in, up or down?

Yes, Boris, the church has been there forever, right next to the cemetery. My parents and I often went there for a walk to the beach. My sister is towards the lower hamlet, near the old well - do you still remember it?

Yes, Velichka, I remember that well – as children we often stopped there to drink water on our way back from the beach. The church has really stood for a long time, right next to the cemetery, and it has always been peaceful. Is your sister still in the lower hamlet?

Yes, Boris, the church has really stood intact for years, right next to the cemetery. Our house was a little further up, but we still often walked by for dinner. My sister is towards the lower hamlet, near the old well - do you still go there sometimes?
