The Feast of the Holy Great Martyr Demetrius in Ireland
On Sunday, 8 November 2026, the feast of the Holy Great Martyr Demetrius – St Demetrius' Day (Mitrovdan) – was liturgically celebrated in Galway.
Following the Holy Liturgy, which was served by the parish priest, Archpriest-Administrator Aleksandar Vujko, the assembled faithful offered prayers for those fallen asleep in the Lord, and a memorial service for the departed was held.
The joy of the festal gathering and Christian fellowship continued after the service at the agape meal (table of love).
