Sydney: Collybum making class at the Parish of Agios Savvas in Kalymnostranslated

August 22, 2026 · 1 min read

In the Parish of Agios Savvas the Younger in Kalymnos, in Sydney, on the evening of Friday, August 21, expatriates of the second and third generation had the opportunity to learn from the Priestly Superior, Father Savvas Pisania, how the holy huts for the sleeping are prepared, participating in a special, specialized seminar-workshop. In this way, the children and young people of the second and third generation of Greek immigrants, as well as other Orthodox believers, learn and preserve the sacred traditions and the precious legacies of the Orthodox faith and Greek tradition.

The successful organization of the previous seminar on the preparation of prophoros was the reason for the continuation of this beautiful initiative, this time with a specialized seminar, dedicated to the preparation of collybos for the sleeping.

It is worth pointing out that the Parish of Agios Savvas offers free participation in the seminars, as well as all the necessary materials to the participants, effectively contributing to the preservation and transmission of the Orthodox tradition to the younger generations.

Qué bueno que sigan con estos talleres. Después del de los prosphora, ahora los kolliva para los difuntos, me parece muy práctico. Ojalá en nuestra parroquia aquí en México hagamos algo parecido, porque los jóvenes se olvidan rápido de cómo se preparan.

У нас в Казани после воскресной службы тоже иногда показывают, как колива готовить, но не так регулярно. Хорошо, что в Сиднее всё бесплатно и материалы дают — молодёжь точно запомнит. А после просфоры это прям логичное продолжение, молодцы.

Our parish in Boston tried something like this last year after the prosphora workshop, and the younger folks really stuck with it. Nice to see Sydney doing the kolliva one for free with all the ingredients supplied — that’s what keeps it from fading out. Father Savvas must have had his hands full that Friday night.

У нас в Одесі після панахиди теж іноді показують, як варити коливо, але не так часто, як у Сіднеї. Добре, що після майстерні з просфорами одразу перейшли на це — молодь краще запам’ятає. І що все безкоштовно з продуктами, це правильно, бо інакше швидко забудуть.
