DEMONSTRATION HELD SUNDAY, FEBRUARY 24 IN WASHINGTON, DC
WASHINGTON, DC - Around 1,000 people gathered at our nation's capital to protest the illegitimate actions the United States took in recognizing the illegal succession of Kosovo from Serbia. Serbs were joined by Greeks, Cypriots, Russians and others who stretched out their prayers and support.
A moleban was served by His Grace, Bishop Mitrophan in front of the White House, followed by a formal demonstation on the White House lawn, with numerous speakers proclaiming the truth for all to hear.
The protest was peaceful and prayerful.
Donors made it possible for Serbs from the Pittsburgh, Aliquippa, Monroeville and Hermitage parishes to travel by bus, free of charge. Special thanks goes to Mim Bizic for coordinating the bussing and soliciting the donations.
