Bishop Milan Stipić Baptizes Children During St. Sharbel Pilgrimage in Križevci

On Saturday, 18 July 2026, a pilgrimage to St. Sharbel was held in Križevci, where Bishop Milan Stipić, the bishop of Križevci, led the liturgy and baptized five children from the "Sv. Marko Križevčanin" orphanage. In his homily, the bishop reflected on the uniqueness of each human soul and the moral power of speech.

Later the same day, three new clocks were installed on the tower of the parish church of the Holy Heart of Jesus in Križišće. The clocks were blessed by parish priest Goran Žan Lebović Casalonga. Funding came from the town of Kraljevica (€10,000) and the parish (€1,600) to complete a project originally envisioned in 1910.
