There is no telling what God's plan was for this strange little church, known at least locally as the "Day of Judgement Church". The Catholic Apostolic congregation that had it built in 1892 more or less died out around 1960, and so the church was out of use for over two decades. During this period the rumour started going around that a re-inauguration would herald the end of the world. The Greek-Orthodox congregation obviously had no time for superstition, as they moved here in 1986 (or maybe no one told them about the sinister prediction). The Congregation of the Annunciation (Evangelismos Tis Theotokou) has some 500 members, and frequently they bring in a priest from Sweden. From time to time the church is lent to the Serbian Orthodox community (+47 66 90 6384) as well as the Bulgarian one.
