Description
We invite you to pay homage to our Great Fan Noli and celebrate the 100th Anniversary of the First Mass given in the Albanian Language.
“On 22 March 1908 , the young Fan Noli proudly celebrated the liturgy in Albanian for the first time at the Knights of Honor Hall in Boston .
This in itself act constituted the first step towards the official organization and recognition of an Albanian Autocephalous Orthodox Church, but it meant so much more for all Albanians regardless of their religion.”
