Христос Воскресе!

☦ Pascha cross procession, yesterday

☦ current reading -
book about Father Gury (Chezlov).

He was one of several leading opponents of the new identification documents in the 1990s. Back then, it didn't seem as pressing as it does now.

When praying to God for something, should we increase the frequency we pray?
The greatest gain, as the Fathers say, is not that we receive what we ask from God, but that we are with God at the time of prayer. That is why God often delays fulfilling our requests, so that we may spend more time close to Him—so that we may be with Him in prayer. This is the greatest gain!
As long as a person prays and communes with God, they benefit far more than if they were to receive what they ask for, but then forget prayer. That is disastrous [forgetting to pray].

*Hieromonk Savvas Agioritis (Homily, April 6, 2026)*

☦ ქრისტე აღსდგა! ჭეშმარიტად აღდგა! 🙏🏻
