On Sunday 24 June 2024, Pentecost-Descent of the Holy Spirit-Trojcindan, Archimandrite Sergije served Divine Liturgy, followed by the three Pentecost kneeling prayers, during which those present weaved wreathes and crosses from the fresh greenery, which also decorated the Monastery Church iconostasis. The Rt. Rev. Sava (Juric), retired Bishop of Slavonia, was prayerfully present and took Holy Communion, as did Protosindjel Filotej, who also read one of the kneeling prayers. Responses were sung on both days by the Metropolitan’s Choir.
