As the Church celebrates the third World Day for Grandparents and Elderly, the Diocese of Nikopolis / Russe together with our sisters in Zarevbrod invited 150 senior citizens of the diocese to the spacious garden of the Zarevbrod convent.
Yet, it were not only the elderly who came, but young alike enjoying the happy being together with the Bishop, many priests of the diocese and the sisters.
Bishop Strahil Kavalenov celebrated the holy mass in the garden assisted by many priests of the whole diocese.

The logo of this yearly meeting depicting the Saints Joachim, Anna and Maria, was passed on to the parish priest of Pleven, who will organise the meeting next year.
It was indeed a joyful being together of young and old.
