Nikola Jakimoski from Ohrid is the believer who among the participating 100 swimmers retrieved the Holy Cross after it was placed into the waters of Ohrid Lake on Friday morning.
St. John the Baptist, or Fisherman’s Day celebrations continue on Saturday in Ohrid, set to offer a rich cultural and entertainment content.
The people of Ohrid say that earlier, at the time when it was forbidden to throw the holy cross for Epiphany, they did it in the early morning hours on the day of St. John the Baptist.
