The Mass at St. Paul’s Cathedral was led by the Metropolitan Archbishop, Monsignor Arjan Dodaj, who congratulated the faithful and asked for the commitment of all state, social and media structures to put themselves at the service of a more hopeful horizon for young people.

Many citizens turned to cathedrals and churches in different cities of the country to celebrate the holy holiday. While today is Easter lunch. There is no shortage of Easter bread and red eggs on the faithful’s table, which were previously sent to the Catholic Cathedral to be blessed.
