Thursday morning and especially the afternoon were opportunities for children from primary school to come and see the icon. In the morning at 8:15 there was a holy mass especially for children from sixth grade. Pastor Dr. theol Roland Graf already had explained them earlier about the Our Lady from Czestochova and From Ocean to Ocean. The children were very eager presenting the intercessions. It is great to see that the children still can be won for Christ.
