Novo-Tikhvin Monastery Sisters share their testimony about Serbs
"You can save the fatherland, the fruit of a 500-hundred-year-long
battle. Save and preserve, o God, - the Serbian nation implores You".
The words of the national anthem of Serbia say much about the people
inhabiting this country. An anthem-prayer! Russia had this, too, a long
time ago... The times may have changed, the way of life in our countries
changed, but Serbians and Russians are still the brethren-nations. Just
as it was a hundred years ago, the Russian songs are sung today in
Serbia, and the Serbian ones - in Russia. The sisters of our abode
verified this in practice: they recorded a CD with the patriotic songs
of Serbia, the disk which will become a gift to the fraternal Serbian
nation.

 July 2007 - Pec, Kosovo & Metohija - For the past 10 years, the BLAGO (Treasure) Fund established by the Serbian Unity Congress has been preserving and promoting Serbian cultural heritage. Creating computerized virtual-reality libraries of the interiors and exteriors of our monasteries, we give people around the world -- Serbs and all others -- a chance to visit these faraway gems of our culture. The center of these treasures historically and in terms of sheer richness, is in the southern Serbian province of Kosovo-and-Metohija, a place that people can today only visit with a heavily armed escort of NATO troops to protect against Albanian attack.
Having already recorded virtual libraries of the monasteries of Gracanica (gra-cha-nee-tsa) and Decani (de-cha-nee) our BLAGO (Treasure) team set out this summer for the Patriarchate of Pec (pech), a Serbian crown jewel and beacon of Christianity in Kosovo-and-Metohija.
