IN ORTHODOX CHURCH THESAINT VASILIOS WAS THEBISHOP OF CAESAREA
He founded in his area hospitals ,orphanages, nursinghomes and spent all his property to help people.His name is connected to the new year’s cake that
we make.Tradition says that he wanted to return to the peopleof the province, precious jewels that had been givento him. (He was going to give these jewels to the
Roman officials who threatened to destroy theregion). The Romans got away from the area withouttaking the jewels. He wanted to return the jewels,but he didn’t know which jewels belonged to whom.Therefore, he ordered to put each of them in a pieand to share the pies to the people. So, everyone
took a pie with a jewel inside.
