On that occasion, he told his students and teachers that he would try to do more for the school than until recently, when he was a metropolitan from Zagreb and Ljubljana.

As reported by the Information Service of the Serbian Orthodox Church (SOC), the patriarch added that “when we are angry and carry out aggression, then there is no peace or joy, only frustration deepens in each of us.”

He claimed that the metropolitan’s service in Zagreb was challenging, but “undeservedly enriched it.”

“Not only have I learned a lot, but many times I have loved various unexpected and surprising situations, and especially from people, including all of you,” said the Patriarch of Porfirio, addressing the students and teachers of the school.

As previously reported by Radio Television of Serbia, the Patriarch of Porphyry will visit Banija residents who died in the December earthquake tomorrow.

Upon his return to Zagreb, the patriarch will visit the Lekenik Civil Protection base, where the delivery of two large containers and four smaller ones is expected, which will be donated by the Serbian Orthodox Church and the Serbian Embassy in Zagreb to the Banija area . affected by the earthquake.

The visit of Patriarch Porfirio is a continuation of the aid that the Serbian Orthodox Church sends to the inhabitants of Banija, directed from the Metropolitanate of Zagreb-Ljubljana, in coordination with the humanitarian initiative of the Serbian National Council “Banija is our home”.

Patriarch Pofirije was elected head of the Serbian Orthodox Church last week, and is also temporarily performing the duty of administrator of the Zagreb-Ljubljana metropolitan, which he led for several years.
