In Timișoara, at the cathedral, we always take the cross out after the Holy Liturgy and people bow in turn. Interestingly, even the Serbian firefighters observe Krestovden. I didn't know that. Have a good day to all who work with fire.

In our places in Volos, after the liturgy, they also take the Cross out into the yard and everyone goes to worship. I didn't know firefighters celebrate today, interesting. Happy birthday to those who work with fire.
