On the occasion of May 24, the Day of the Macedonian and Slavic Teachers, Saints Cyril and Methodius, the Macedonian Association “Ilinden”-Tirana sent a congratulatory message to the Archbishop of Ohrid and Macedonia, Mr. Stefan, and to all Macedonians everywhere.
Allow me, on my own behalf, on behalf of the society and all Macedonians in Albania, to you personally, the clergy and all Orthodox believers, Macedonians everywhere, to congratulate you on May 24, the Day of the Macedonian and Pan-Slavic Enlighteners Saints Cyril and Methodius.
The celebration honors the holy brothers from Thessaloniki, Saints Cyril and Methodius, as the founders of Slavic literacy and literature, the founders of the first Slavic alphabet – Glagolitic, who are responsible for the cultural development of both the Macedonian people and all Slavic peoples.
Their great contribution is of inestimable value, because only the written word has remained and through which human knowledge and wisdom are transmitted. The work of Saints Cyril and Methodius lived for centuries, lives and will live forever. Let us celebrate the day of the Macedonian and Pan-Slavic teachers Saints. Cyril and Methodius.
