We remind you that in accordance with the decision of the Bishops’ Conference in Bosnia and Herzegovina from 2003., instead of May, the Day of Social Communications in BiH is celebrated on the last Sunday in September. It should be noted that this year’s host, the parish of Potoci, was founded in 1892. during the time of Bishop OFM Paškal Buconjić. The first parish priests were Franciscans, and in 1904. the bishop handed over the parish to the diocesan clergy. The first diocesan parish priest was rev. Tadija Božić, who, with the help of benefactors and the people, built the parish church.
