ALJMAS, Aug 15 (Hina) - More than 15,000 people from Croatia and
abroad gathered in front of a demolished church Saturday to
celebrate Assumption in the eastern Croatian town of Aljmas
(Croatian Danube river region).
Mass was served by the Djakovo and Srijem Bishop, Marin Srakic.
Aljmas parishioner Ante Markic recalled the difficult years of
exile.
Hope was not in vain, because we have returned to our Aljmas
together with the statue of the Virgin Mary, Markic said.
The statue was rescued by residents in 1991 when they were forced to
flee from their home town by Serb forces.
The statue was returned to Aljmas on August 1.
We marked the true return on that day, Markic said.
