Maria MüllerNice to see that so many pilgrims have come to Saint Mary Magdalene, especially for her relics. I have also seen the icon of the “Portărița” from Athos in a picture in our community. Hopefully the weather was good in Teleorman.

Hana DvořákováNice that so many pilgrims came to the remains of Saint Mary Magdalene. The Portaritissa icon by Athos is also well known here, we once had it at an exhibition in Brno. How was the weather in Teleorman, Maria?
