Sunday of All Bulgarian Saints is the newest moveable feast in the Bulgarian church calendar, going back to 1954 when the Holy Synod of the Bulgarian Orthodox Church declared the second Sunday after Pentecost to be the Sunday of All Bulgarian Saints.

On this day the church honours all historical persons who have lived in our lands and who have been canonized as saints, as well as the innumerable martyrs, monks and holy people who have sacrificed their lives to preserve Christianity in out lands.
