Patriarch Daniil celebrated a divine service for the so-called Second Resurrection of Christ in the Sofia-based church of Saint Nedelya.
At the festive liturgy, texts from the Gospel were sung in different languages, reminding us that the good news was carried by the apostles to all peoples of the world.
“For a believer, everything is possible. The greatest testimony to the Resurrection of the Lord Jesus Christ is that so many millions and billions of people have changed their lives. They have understood the power of a pious life, the power to live in the way the Lord has shown us. This resurrects the human soul”, said the patriarch.

The hundreds of people who came to the service lined up to receive a blessing.
