Jovandan slava (Feast of St. John), St. Sava Jackson
A tradition of the Serbian Orthodox is to commemorate annually the family patron saint watching over them all. The turning of the kolach loaf is part of that ritual as family members join the parish priest to ask for another year of blessings and to remember their dearly departed who for generations celebrated much the same.
