First Holy Baptism in the Church of the Salesians of Don Bosko “Virgin Mary Help of Christians”, town of Stara Zagora

On June 29. the church family increased with another representative. After turning one year old, little Alexander received his baptism. The boy was introduced to the church community by his godmother, Veneta. Parents Ilijas and Dessislava, with faith in their hearts, recognizing the work of the Salesians, chose the church in Stara Zagora for this very important day for their son. Many relatives and friends of the family attended the solemn service officiated by Father Petr Cvrkal. With a child’s cry, little Alexander himself announced to all present about his baptism. In his sermon, Father Petr drew everyone’s attention to the symbol of the dove and faith in God. The priest again reminded how important the role of God is in our lives, how He helps us, but only if we decide to let Him near us. After the service, all those present at the baptism had the opportunity to learn about the work of the Salesians in Bulgaria and their mission to help children and work with minority groups in our country.”
