On the Ascension of the Lord (Spasovdan), June 10, a traditional cross procession was held, led by His Holiness Patriarch Porfirije of Serbia, through the center of Belgrade in honor of the city’s Slava.
It was attended by tens of thousands of believers, city authorities, several hundred priests, members of the Serbian army, representatives of the police and various municipal services, as well as medical workers—the heroes of the fight against the epidemic. There were many children’s church choirs, sports clubs, city orchestras, and cultural organizations.
The procession made its way from the Ascension Church to the Cathedral of St. Sava, where a festive moleben was held.
