The celebrations of the 20th anniversary of  the Bulgarian Sunday school in Athens Saints Cyril and Methodius in Athens,  Greece started with a dictation in the Bulgarian language and a calligraphy workshop.
Young and older children  practiced their spelling and checked their knowledge of Bulgarian grammar, and  then went on to try their hand at calligraphy, together with Assoc. Prof. Adriana  Lubenova from the Paisii Hilendarski University in Plovdiv. The initiative was  not competitive, its aim was purely practical – to demonstrate technical skills  in calligraphy in the Cyrillic alphabet and help instill a love of writing and  of the Bulgarian language.
On this day, 11  May, when the Orthodox church honours Saints Cyril and Methodius, the events in  Athens continue with a scientific forum The Way of Light. It is taking place under the patronage of the Vice President  of Bulgaria Iliana Iotova, and aims to present the work of Cyril and Methodius  and their followers, to highlight the role of Bulgaria for preserving and  popularizing the alphabet they created, and to help popularize the Bulgarian  language and culture in other countries with the help of the Bulgarian Sunday  schools.
