Members of the Collective 'Touch My Knees' have shifted their approach regarding the ongoing protests against public prayer movements in Rijeka. Instead of participating in demonstrations, they attended a morning mass at the Cathedral of St. Vida, led by Archbishop Mate Uzinić. This decision marks a significant change in their strategy, as they aim to support Archbishop Uzinić’s efforts to protect public spaces from the instrumentalization of faith, despite not being part of the church community themselves. During the mass, they stood alongside the prayer participants, indicating a desire for peaceful coexistence rather than confrontation.

In his sermon, Archbishop Uzinić emphasized the importance of mutual respect and community, urging attendees to open themselves to God and his inspirations. He expressed the need for society to strive for unity, without divisions that can be exacerbated by law enforcement barriers. His calls for collective harmony reflect a broader plea for understanding and compassion within a diverse community, amidst the tension that has marked the interactions between religious expressions and public dissent.

The Collective had previously submitted a petition against public prayers, titled 'Removing the Kneelers in Memory of 18 Murdered Women', highlighting their commitment to advocating for women's rights in the context of public faith expressions. This latest development suggests a willingness to explore alternative forms of activism that promote dialogue and community rather than division, signaling a potential shift in the dynamics of public discourse surrounding faith and activism in Croatia.
