Ilia II - A family is happy when it is legal, and legal family consists of a man and a woman

Remember that a family is happy when it is legal, and legal family consists of a man and a woman – Catholicos-Patriarch of All Georgia, His Holiness and Beatitude Ilia II said in Sameba (Holy Trinity) Cathedral in Tbilisi when addressing participants of the public marching organized on the occasion of Family Purity Day marked on May 17.

Ilia II also asked the believers to kneel before parents to receive a blessing from them. “Blessing of a mother and father makes miracles,” he said.

A public marching was held from First Republic Square toward Sameba Cathedral this afternoon on the occasion of Family Purity Day. The day was established at the initiative of Georgian Catholicos-Patriarch in 2014.
