On the second day of Christmas, on the feast of the Synaxis of the Most Holy Theotokos, the Patriarch of the Romanian Orthodox Church visited and consecrated a Church daycare center in southeastern Romania.
The St. Stelian Children’s Day Center in Urlați was initially inaugurated by His Beatitude Patriarch Daniel in 2013. It was blessed again yesterday after being expanded and modernized, reports the Basilica News Agency.
The center offers after-school services, tutoring, and counseling for 35 children from the local area who come from financially struggling families, families with many children, and single parents. School students receive hot food, school supplies, clothing, shoes, and toys throughout the school year.
