Metropolitan Atanasije leads Holy Hierarchical Liturgy at Mileševa Monastery

Metropolitan Atanasije of Mileševa celebrated the Holy Hierarchical Liturgy at the Church of the Ascension in the Mileševa Monastery on October 25, 2026. The service, marking the 21st Sunday after Pentecost and the Holy Fathers of the Seventh Ecumenical Council, was assisted by Archpriest-Stavrofor Nikola Perković and Protodeacon Ivan Savić, with the Mileševa nuns led by Abbess Aquilina participating in the responses.

During his pastoral sermon, Metropolitan Atanasije reflected on the biblical parable of the sower and the seed. He emphasized the importance of spiritual cultivation, stating that just as a field must be tilled for seeds to grow, individuals must cultivate the space of their souls and hearts to allow Divine wisdom to take root and flourish for eternal life.
