On Saturday, October 24, 2026, the “Calea Sfinților” procession took place in central Bucharest. The Romanian title can be rendered as “Way of the Saints.” The procession followed two routes: one departed from the Patriarchal Cathedral, and the other from the Metropolitan Cathedral “Saint Spyridon” – Nou. For readers unfamiliar with the city’s church geography, the basic arrangement is straightforward: the event had two named starting points in central Bucharest. A procession is a religious event that moves along a route.
The relics of Saint Elisabeth of Pasărea were placed for veneration alongside other holy relics. In religious usage, veneration means showing reverence. This explains the purpose stated for placing the relics, without changing the reported details of the event. The procession therefore involved two departure points, routes through the city center, and relics set out for devotional reverence.
