Congrats on the new family at the cathedral on July 24 — always good to hear a real story like that. The 2026 stats showing zero across the board feel a bit flat though. Anyone got news from their own parish we could add?

It is good that the new family was received in the cathedral on July 24. Two new catechumens appeared here in Batumi in the spring, I met one of them at the football field. Statistics are zero, but at least there will be some news, right?

Well, they welcomed that new family into the diocesan cathedral on July 24. The 2026 statistics showing zero everywhere seems a bit dry to me, but as Luke says, let's hear from our parishes. In Korça, we have an old man who has been coming regularly to the service since the spring, maybe he will become a catechumen after a while.

Last month in Krasnodar, a woman from the hospital where I work as a nurse began going to services after talking about baptism. Statistics show zero, but in reality people are slowly coming. I wonder what will happen by the end of the year.

Katerina Prifti

Yes, it's good that they accepted that family in the cathedral of the diocese, a concrete step. The statistics of 2026 with zero seem like a blank slate to me, but as you say, let's hear from the parishes. In Berat we have a mother who comes with her little grandson every Sunday after school, have you heard anything about her in Korça?
