Patriarch Porfirije thanked Bishop Nikanor and said in his sermon: - We need to build unity and be one in faith in Christ. Faith in the Resurrection of Christ, in the victory over death, over injustice, and in our victory over transience, has shaped our people from the earliest times. Orthodox Serbs lived with such faith. This shows that our people drew the meaning of their existence and strength in glorifying God, rejoiced in what they are to the same extent and when temptations arise in the areas where they live and knew that he was not alone, that God was with him and the Cross of Christ with him.
