Young Catholics from all over the country met at the Saint Francis of Assisi church in the village of Belozem, Rakovski municipality, to join, online, the journey of His Holiness Pope Francis to his celestial home. Some of the children who received first communion from the Pope during his visit to Bulgaria in 2019 wrote down their messages and gratitude and left them next to the photograph of His Holiness.
In 2019, during his visit to Rakovski, a town with the biggest Catholic community in the country, Pope Francis gave first communion to 250 children. “Dear boys and girls, you have come here from every corner of this “Land of Roses” to take part in a wonderful celebration. I am sure you will never forget this day: your first encounter with Jesus in the sacrament of the Eucharist. (…) The Lord needs you, because he wants to work the miracle of bringing his joy to many of your friends and family members,” the Pope said at the time.
