For the third consecutive year, four Catholic churches in Šiauliai will resound with worship hymns on Saturday before the Second Sunday of Easter. From the Renaissance vaults of the Cathedral, the churches of St. George and St. Ignatius of Loyola to the modern spaces of the Church of the Immaculate Conception of the Blessed Virgin Mary, the voices will rise to the heavens and echo throughout the city, bearing witness to the mystery of the Resurrection.
