Olga Bobrovnikova, Nun Seraphima (Golovina)
Monastic life for men and for women is the same: we take the same vows. The most important thing is the acquisition of the Holy Spirit, purity and chastity.
Cristian Curte
He was like the bread of God—humble, meek, always trying to help everyone and encourage them. He never thought much of himself and never spared himself. When praised, he would reply that praise was the same as slander.
St. Seraphim (Chichagov)
Mercy is a fruit of love, is inherent to it, just as warmth is inseparable from fire.
Metropolitan Luke (Kovalenko) of Zaporozhye and Melitopol
Our only “guilt” lies in our desire to follow God’s Law and our refusal to compromise with the world, to call evil good.
Archimandrite Alypy (Voronov)
So, let’s be humble, cut off all pride and the desire to rule, and then we will be saved with God’s help. Amen.
