The Day has come! Today, 70,000 Bulgarian families will be receive The Standart's unique presents - wooden crosses, consecrated in Jerusalem on Friday. The sacramentals travelled the long way from Galilee via Jerusalem to Sofia to bring health and prosperity to thousands of Bulgarians on the Eve of one of the greatest Christian holidays - Easter.
The crosses are made of olive trees, which grew in Galilee - Jesus Christ's native land.
"For the first time we join such a campaign," said representatives of  MyHolyStone - the company which worked out the sacramentals.
"The Bulgarians are lucky to get a bit of the Holy Land without having to travel to Jerusalem," the masters of the unique sacraments said.
On Friday, the crosses from olive trees were consecrated in Jerusalem by the Standart's special envoy Boyan Tomov who carried the sacramentals along the Way to Calvary.
"It turned out that the way to immortality passes via "Bulgaria" street in Jerusalem," Boyan exclaimed.
"I consecrated them with the prayer "God Help Bulgaria!", Tomov said with excitement.
