Every year / today it was at least the 20th successive year / Slovenian government invites in January all the highest Slovene Church dignitaries, bishops, seminary professors, Serbian Orthodox Church representatives, representatives of all Church communities, leading members of the Society of Slovene priests, Cyril Society of Slovene theologians, rectors of middle theologian schools, representatives of church publishing house "Mohorjeve druzba", editors of church weekly "Druzina" etc. This is so called New Year reception and is certainly unique in Yugoslavia as well as in all socialist countries.
