Relics in Macedonia

Relics in Macedonia – Remains of martyrs and saints, parts of their inexhaustible bodies – bones and other objects: Obside, crosses, icons, books, clothing, and footwear used by the saints in their life. They respect the believers, and through relics and “miracles” they happen. Relics are in many monasteries and churches in Macedonia. They are kept in a relic, a nap-raven of valuables, decorated with gold and silver and called the kit, a standard, a gorochranica.
