Fr. George's Message for the Service of the  Akathist Hymn  for the Mourning of the Holy & Great Church of  Agia Sophia  (the Wisdom of God) in Constantinople.   Our beloved brothers and sisters in Christ, Α s you may already have been informed by the news, the Turkish government has finally decided to convert into an Islamic Mosque the Holy & Great Church of the " Wisdom of God ", our  Hagia Sophia , the holiest and most sacred Symbol of Hellenism Orthodoxy. This tragic "inauguration" of the conversion of  Hagia Sophia  to a Mosque, has been scheduled for next Friday, July 24, 2020. As a consequence, the Holy Eparchial Synod, with deep sadness, calls upon us, ALL the faithful of the Greek Orthodox Archdiocese of America, to observe next Friday as a day of mourning and manifest grief.

One day, St. Paisios said, I was digging in my garden in order to plant some tomato seeds. Someone stopped by and asked me, "What are you doing, Elder?"   "What do you think I am doing?  I am confessing my garden."   "Okay, Elder," he says to me, "even your garden needs confession?"   "Indeed, it needs confession. I have determined that, when I confess my garden, in other words, when I remove from it the rocks, the weeds, the thorns, etc., then it is able to produce a good crop; otherwise, the tomatoes turn out yellow and unripe!"

Sayings of St. PAISIOS of the Mount Athos (Holy Mountain)  "If we want to be connected with God, we should coordinate our transmitter to the frequency of love and our receiver to that of humility. Love and humility are the frequency in which God works! We need to work hard, as much as we can, in order to catch this frequency. Then we will be in contact with God, and our minds will continuously be with God".
