Today is the commemoration day of another group of saints I love to pray to: the newly revealed Martyrs of the Turkish Yoke Raphael, Nicholas and Irene of the island of Lesvos. https://full-of-grace-and-truth.blogspot.com/2012/04/sts-raphael-nicholas-and-irene-newly.html

Really enjoy this one. ˆˆ

An audio recording of St. Porphyrios of Kapsokalyvia reading the Paschal Homily of St. John Chrysostom during Paschal Matins!

Christ is risen!

Today is the commemoration of St. Cuthbert of Lindisfarne … possibly the first Orthodox saint I remember encountering and who has shown himself to be a very quiet, unobtrusively present heavenly protector for some decades now. I was very blessed to be able to make a pilgrimage to his tomb in Durham Cathedral back in 1999!
