On Tuesday morning, July 1st, groups of children and adults gradually arrived at the Kamenité site in Vyšní Lhoty, filling it up and creating a sense of anticipation in the air. The meeting of children and families with the bishop was just beginning at Prašivá. The joyful atmosphere was significantly enhanced by the sunshine, greetings from friends and acquaintances, and also the first song performed by the choir from Opava, "Who is the Lord of the Jungle." It got many of the thousands present dancing with the help of the moderators and sent them a message, "who is my Lord."
Bishop Martin welcomed the participants of the meeting and during a conversation revealed that if he had to choose among biblical pilgrims, they would be the disciples going to Emmaus: "The disciples do not walk a long way, but they talk with the Lord Jesus all along the way and recognize him at the end." When asked what a pilgrim should never forget, he replied that he carries everything in his backpack that everyone else carries: a snack, water, a hat, but he likes to wear a rosary on his wrist and prays it.
