At the opening of the event, the Primate of the Polish Orthodox Church, His Beatitude Metropolitan Savva, thanked the youth for their efforts in promoting Orthodoxy and emphasized the importance of international unity among Orthodox youth.

Metropolitan Savva urged the participants to do everything in their power to maintain the unity of the Orthodox Church.

The goal of the "Supraśl 2024" meeting is to unite young people from Local Orthodox Churches, support them in their faith, and motivate them to actively participate in church life.

During the nine-day program, participants will attend seminars, lectures, and take part in various activities related to art, cinema, and music.
