In Serbia, religious guidance has been provided regarding the Slava tradition, specifically the preparations required for the blessing of water. Additionally, cultural programs in Serbia have focused on the International Day of Rural Women, using fashion and history to explore social changes and collective identity.

In Croatia, religious activities include Missionary Sunday observations by the St. Peter and Paul Parish in Osijek, which supports missionary work and local orphanages.
