Slava

2007-12-16T05:15:00.000-08:00

Slava (Serbian: Слава) is a Serbian tradition of celebrating a family patron saint. When Serbs came to Balkans they believed in many Gods, after Serbs became Orthodox Christians, their tradition - Slava still continued but instead of celebrating paganic Gods, they celebrated many Saints (mostly Serbs saints) and holy Serbs. The Serbian word Slava could be translated as "glory" or "praise". Each Serbian household has one or two celebrations per year (depending on the saint in question, for some have two days devoted to them). Yet, only one is the main day of the patron saint feast (and not necessarily the same of the two days for all families); the second celebration is referred to as "little slava" or preslava (Serbian: Преслава).
