Eternal memory of Bishop Adam. Ten years have already passed, but he is still remembered and prayed for in the Mukachevo diocese. Thank you to Bishop Viktor for serving litium.

Александар Ристески

Eternal memory of Bishop Adam. It is good that Bishop Viktor does not forget and served the litium precisely on the tenth anniversary. We in Ohrid also always remember our late bishops on such dates, because prayer is the most important thing we can do.

Daniela Popescu

Eternal memory of Bishop Adam. It is a good thing that Bishop Viktor served the lithia precisely on the tenth anniversary, because here in Bucharest we also always try to commemorate our loved ones on round dates. Prayer is the only thing we can do for them.

Vangjel Kristo

Eternal memory of Bishop Adam. It is a good thing that Bishop Viktor served litia precisely on the tenth anniversary, because we in Gjirokastër also try to commemorate our bishops on round dates. Prayer is the most concrete thing we can do.

Kristina Dhima

Yes, Vangjel, thanks for saying that. Even we in Gjirokastra have a habit of not forgetting the round dates for our bishops. I liked that Viktor Bedi did it exactly in the tenth, because concrete prayer is what remains. Did you know Adam Dubc personally?

Thoma Nako

Yes, Vangjel, I also think that prayer is the simplest and strongest thing we can do. In Elbasan, we had the opportunity to remember an old priest exactly on his 10th anniversary with a small litany in the church after the usual bread. Have you ever seen how Adam Dubc prayed to people when he came to Albania?

Ilia Dhima

Yes, Thoma, praying after ordinary bread as you did in Elbasan seems very natural to me. I have not seen Adam Dubc himself in Albania, but I have been told that he spoke a little Albanian and blessed people with a calm smile. Do you remember any specific words he said to them there?

Athina Papa

Yes, Kristina, I also think that the concrete prayer is what has real value, not just the date. I did not know Adam Dubci personally, but I heard that he was a simple man and loved his people. Have you ever met him?

Petro Nako

Yes, Athena, concrete prayer is what remains. I have never met Adam Dubci, but a friend from Mukachevo told me that he often visited small villages and spoke to people as an equal. Have you been to any such memorial liturgy recently?

Sofia Thanasi

Yes, Athena, concrete prayer is what really helps. I have not met Adam Dubci either, but a woman from Berat who worked in Ukraine told me that he cared a lot for the lonely old people in the villages. Have you ever been to any such memorial in our church?

Eleni Prifti

Yes, prayer is what sustains us all. I remember when Adam Dubci once came to a village near the border and sat with the people after the liturgy drinking coffee like any other person. Have you been to any memorial services lately, Petro?

Maria Nako

Yes, Ilia, I've heard the same thing about Adam Dubc's smooth smile. In Elbasan, he blessed with a simple "God be with you", without many words. Do you know what year that visit was?

Teuta Nako

Yes, Sofia, prayer for the separated is what we have left. I didn't know he cared about lonely old people, that says a lot about him. In our church in Gjirokastra, we had similar commemorations for old priests, but not for Dubci - did you go to them often?

Andrea Prifti

Yes, Teuta, the commemorations for the old priests in Gjirokastra keep us close to each other. I have been to two or three of them, especially when they remembered my father who served there in the 90s. Do you have any special memories from any of those liturgies?

Vangjel Kristo

Yes, Sofia, concrete prayer really works. I liked what you said about his care for the lonely old people in the villages, because I heard something similar from a man from Korça who worked there. In our church in Gjirokastër, we have held commemorations for old priests, but I haven't been often - have you been to any of them recently?

Gjergj Dhima

Yes, Sofia, the prayer for the separated is what remains after everything. I liked what you said about the woman from Berat who worked in Ukraine, because I also heard from an old man in our church in Tirana that Dubci helped old people without families. Have you been to any such commemoration here in the capital?

Spiro Kristo

Yes, Teuta, the prayer for the separated really connects us. I have heard that Dubci helped lonely old men in the Carpathian mountains, something not many people knew. Have you been to any such commemoration in Gjirokastra that has remained in your mind for some special reason?

Eleni Prifti

Yes, concrete prayer is what sustains us, Vangjel. It also reminded me of how an old man from our village told us about the care that Adam Dubec had for the lonely old people - he said that he brought bread and oil to their homes himself. I have been to two commemorations in Gjirokastra last year, but not the last one; do you have any news from there?
