The ceremony started with the Consecration of bread by an Orthodox priest and celebrating the feast of the Great Mother of God “Velika Gospojina” (in the old style) – Rotary Club Pirot’s patron.
The highlight of the night was the new member’s acceptance, Mrs. Jivana Popovich in Satellite Club Luzhnica.

The dances and the friendship atmosphere were amazing. The event was a wonderful gathering, a great atmosphere, and an unforgettable evening among friends.
