90 years of Msgr. Silan: celebratory service in the Dolina motorway church
A very special occasion is just around the corner: Msgr. Leopold Silan, a respected clergyman and former pastor of the Dolina pilgrimage and highway church, will celebrate his 90th birthday on Sunday, October 13th. This important milestone will be honored with a festive thanksgiving service in Dolina.
As curator for the Slovenian pilgrimage ministry in Maria, Msgr. Silan made a valuable contribution to the spiritual community for many years. His contributions to the Catholic Church and the promotion of the faith in the region are obvious and appreciated by many. The service, in which priests from the Tainach/Tinje deanery will take part, offers the opportunity to express personal thanks and appreciate the importance of his work.
Celebrations and program
The celebrations on Sunday begin with the service, which not only invites visitors to a spiritual experience, but also reflects the community's long-standing connection with Msgr. Silan. In the historic Dolina pilgrimage and highway church, believers can expect a well-designed ceremony that will reflect the spirit and commitment of the jubilee.
During his time as a pastor, Msgr. Silan accompanied numerous people on their journey of faith. His commitment and passion for Slovenian pilgrimage pastoral care can still be felt today. Residents and visitors to the region are invited to take part in this special event and celebrate together.
The 90th birthday of Msgr. Silan is not only a personal triumph, but also a moment of happiness for the entire community, which sees in him a loyal advocate and friend. The event therefore offers the opportunity to deepen the connection between believers and the clergy and to celebrate their shared faith.
Preparations for the service are already in full swing and the congregation is expecting lively participation. It is a heartwarming opportunity to honor a man who had such a profound impact on the spiritual life of the region.
