With fewer people, face masks and wishes for good health, Bulgarians mark the day of Saint Haralampi, patron saint of beekeepers, by blessing hundreds of jars of honey in a church in the southwestern town of Blagoevgrad. After the service every believer takes their jar home and uses the honey as medicine throughout the year.
