Special prayer (moleban) for the people of Kosovo and Metohija
On the evening of Monday, February 18, 2008 more than 400
Serbian Orthodox Christians from throughout the Chicago area attended a special
prayer service (moleban) at Holy Resurrection Serbian Orthodox Cathedral. The
service, led by His Eminence Metropolitan Christopher, Fr. Darko Spasojevic,
and Deacon Damjan Bozic was prayerful and moving and a loving display of
brotherhood and solidarity for the suffering Serbian people in Kosovo and
Metohija.
The clergy was supported by a student choir of the St. Sava School of
Theology, Libertyville, Illinois, who sang the responses beautifully. The
Serbian Orthodox Christians in attendance wholeheartedly reject the unilateral declaration
of Kosovo's independence by the Albanian Muslims and the United States'
subsequent recognition.
